Why The Rose Is The Preferred Flower?
The world is full of flowers. Visit any place
dedicated to flowers and you will be amazed at
the types of flowers, and facts about them. Flowers
come in all shapes, and colors. Some of them can
intoxicate you with their lovely perfume. Some
are so delicate that one fears touching them.
And all of them are stunningly beautiful.
till, it is the Rose which is preferred around
the world as a flower of choice on the Valentine's
day? I wonder about this. And though I have not
tried to search for the reasons, here is my own
theory on why it is so. One another fact struck
me. We can get Roses in many colors but still
it the dark red that is preferred as the flower
of love. Why? View some of the desktop
wallpapers for Valentine's day. You will find
rose prominently on them. Therefore the question
- Why?
Let us first think about the color choice. I
think that dark red must be the preferred color
as it looks like red. And every true lover is
ready to shed his/her blood for the beloved. Also
love is associated with the heart, and heart pumps
blood. So red signifies love. Colors have their
own significance, looking at any white color,
the first thought is of purity. Same way red means
love.
Now let us examine our central theme. Why Rose?
A Rose has thorns. But the thorns are below the
Rose.
The Rose represents life beautifully. It has
very soft petals, that tell us about the soft
side of living and thorns to convey that life
is not all the bed of Roses without thorns. What
does a lover do? A true lover will always take
the thorns and give only the soft flowers to his/her
darling. That is love and love demands that one
give only comfort to one's darling. Love demands
sacrifice. Love demands giving of joy. Love demands
that all pain be kept away from the beloved. That
is also the message a lover sends across to his/her
beloved with a Rose. I have kept the thorns with
myself and I am sending you these soft flowers
. I think this is the reason why on Valentine's
day, the red Rose is the flower of choice. To
