While chatting with a friend of mine on our weekend shopping trips to a local herbarium and florist, we remembered the good times when plants and flowers were used to express good things such as romantic attraction. . My female colleagues and I innocently responded to the flirtation with flushed faces and cute smiles. I'm sorry for stating a cliché but ... Oh Lord, how I miss the good old days!
My friend's mother used to sprinkle little leaves and pour baskets of plants around the apartment to bless the life of her family. Today I also saw some beautiful herbal blessing bottles for those of you who decide to buy everything ready rather than doing it on your own. Some of them have a label explaining one of the following intentions: devotion, undying love, appreciation or joy and happiness. My friend follows the tradition of recreating free and green nature within the four blocks of its walls. For her, as for many women, it expresses her visions and spiritual feelings, and it is also a wonderful reminder of her dreams.
More than looking and smelling flowers and plants, try to connect your spiritual self with them. They have life, although very short, but very powerful. In case you are unaware of their existence, I am placing names of plants and flowers related to love, because as a popular saying goes, “love is all we need!”. So broadcast!
