blue roses my tribute to the beautiful blue and the significance of unattainable bliss

 
   Symbolism : Love  and prosperity  for  those  who seek, also   mystery  or  attaining the  impossible  or   a never  ending   quest  for  the impossible and/or unattainable.  They are  believed  to  grant the  owner/receiver youth or   grant wishes.  In  Victorian times  they  symbolized  love  at  first  sight or  being enchanted  by  someone  or  something.  In  Chinese  folklore it  symbolizes hope  against  unattainable love.

      why  the  blue  rose.   the  blue is  the forgotten rose.  also  the  most  seductive. It   has the most important symbolism.
       It is my  believe  that  the   yearning  or  desire  for  the impossible is one  on  the most important  quests  one  can  take on in ones life.

Why?

By  doing so we open ourselves   up  to  the  wonder  of  the  child's  uncorrupted  unhindered  mind
 a  way  of  seeing  with  the  child's  eyes  A  world  where  all  things  are possible.

As  we   grow  older  our   frame  of reference  often shrinks.  The  daily  suffocating  routines of  modern life.  The  un fulfilling job,  the incomplete  relationships,  the diminished  expectations,  the  settling  for the  mediocre or  the just  OK.  The  worst is  the  accepting  of this  incompleteness as  final  truth.

These  all add  up  to imprison the  mind , soul,  and  spirit,  killing  joy  and the sense  of  wonder.
  It's  not  a  fast  death,  more like  sinking  in slow  motion quicksand.  taking a  little  more  each  day.
 Until your  left  wondering  what the hell went  wrong .

   The  yearning  for the impossible or  unattainable  counters  this, by opening  us  up  to  'the  just  maybe  this  can happen, maybe  these  impossible  dreams and wishes  just  might  come true.  This  at  once  brings  about  the joy  of possibilities,in turn this  energizes  the  mind  and lifts  the spirits. It  breaks  thru  the torpor. loosening inertia. This  state  of  mind  is  the real  truth.

We  are  as  much  what  we  think  as  we  are  what  we  do.   All  actions initially  start  as  thought. Lets  make those  thoughts  great  ones   so   what  if  people think  your foolish  or  childish  or  any other  unnecessary  label.  Let  them suffer  in their own  limitations.whilst slowly  sinking.

      SO  go  ahead  and plant  a  blue  rose,  and raise  a toast  to those  who desire  the  impossible   for  they are the ones  who  create  this world  and the ones  who  you will follow.

     One  foolish  thought  done with passion is  worth  a million common ones
