Rose oh my Rose

Hi there, Reader;

I'm in love with the re-discovery of what it means to really be loved. When I was a child I had dreams of this type of man I would marry. Fantasy of what I thought he would look like. As I grew up I realized that what I wanted in a man wasn't the childhood looks or thoughts, but what it really means to have a love. Like a Rose, the meaning of love is more than the beauty of it. I had to look up the modernity meaning to understand what and how a Rose transform from beautiful to love. The meaning as explained today: Long stemmed roses carry a deep meaningand are often the most desired and appreciated type of rose. A bouquet of long stemmed roses signifies, “I will remember you always.” A single long stemmed roseimparts a message of simplicity, such as “I love you” 

Let's look at a Rose before it is prepared for the marketplace. 
1. It has lots of thorns on it.
2. Some of the pedals may be discolored or decaying.

Now in the has of the gardener. It begins to take shape. He gentle picks up each Rose one at a time and pulls the towns out. One by one making sure the steam isn't ruined. The soft gental pedals are like velvet to most, however in the hand of the pruner it the velvet gets almost caught by the ruff texture. Gentleness is most important, as he removes just enough to be sold not enough to damage the flower. That's love. Knowing what is to be kept and what should be disguarded. 

How much is too much? The knowledge only comes with knowing the person. A Rose by any other name is not a Rose. Therefore love...can not be shared unless it is in its true form.
