Tulips

I still could recall the first Tulip I received...
Was from a dear friend of mine.
A cut flower, yeah...
Watching it die slowly day after day...
It's saddening and depressing.
Because...
There is nothing you could do at all to change the situation.

And today, here I am...
Standing in this grand garden.
Watching colorful Tulips.
Indeed, I feel more than alive.
Delightful.
Just like them...

Color symbolism?
Red - love, passion, energy, desire, strength...
Yellow - Joy, happiness, optimism, hope, imagination...
Orange - Enthusiasm, vibrant, flamboyant, demanding of attention...
Purple - Mysterious, arrogance, wisdom, spirituality...
How accurate?

And Tulip symbolized...
Declaration of love.
Love in many way...
From family, friends, lovers...
Do you love Tulips?
Yes, I do.

Beautiful huh?
Makes you wanna dance with them in the garden.
Still, no one can change the life cycle.
She does not has an eternity life span.
She will ended up like the cut flower eventually.
That is the reason some people will suffer Spring Fever?

Learn to appreciate should be our daily practice.
