I like flowers.suddenly.On the account that my dog doesn't really like plants and the fact that allergy to certain pollen is something I can't quite control, I used to ignore their existence.
However after watching the TVB show, Love Bond, I am very interested in flowers! All kinds of flowers! They keep mentioning about flowers and what they actually mean, it got me quite amazed.
Flowers have a language of their own. Different kinds of flowers tell different story, varying the amount of flowers dictate various meaning.. and colours! Colours paint the sky beautiful again. Isn't it astonishing that a plant can express so many thoughts? They are silent yet their message is strong. Prehaps the finer things in life are those that words can't express. We all know that Rose represent Love, but do you know that different coloured rose connotes different thing? White roses signify a love that is pure and true while red roses convey a love that is passionate and inseperable. Call me slow or what but yes, I am indeed very enthralled, this new language that I have just learn.
I should give my friends yellow roses, they meant friendship.
Now that I am drawn to flowers, Nature intrigues me. I should begin to forsake the well-structured environment that I am attracted to, and start embracing things like plants and insects. haha. Change is good, really, I am beginning to accept that(nick is so right). I realised that flowers actually make me very comfortable.You see, you have this thing(flower) here that is an expression of thoughts from someone that matters. It doesn't even have to be your boyfriend, a good friend could do the job. And isn't if just amazing? It doesn't talk and disturb you but it just can speaks a thousand words. I guess that would be an incredible feeling :)
When you learn to see things from a different perspective, you sometimes felt like you have just been enlightened. I get that feeling sometimes and I will imagine a lightbulb twinkling over my head. My point here is not that flowers are nice, flowers are beautiful that's all. I recalled receiving flowers when I had my pneumonia(yucks). Flowers then, didn't matter to me, I can't even recollect where those flowers end up. So now when I think back I kind of have compuctions for not appreciating the flowers and efforts. I didn't even hear what the flowers had to say to me. Yet now I know, I am able to discern, the simplicity in God's every creation(in this case, flower), and the joy in celebrating the flower's worth.
Now, isn't that the other side of the coin? ha.
Interesting show don't you think so? Tvb drama never seems to fail. :)
