I suppose she meant that things are what they are. Just saying the word 'rose' invokes the imagery, emotion and fragrance associated with one of the worlds most beloved flower.
The beauty and aroma of roses can't be matched. The petal itself is as soft and fresh as a babies skin. We're compelled to touch and smell it's irresistible blossoms. And just like in life, to experience a certain happiness, sometimes we have to contend with thorns.
I can't think of a flower with more well-known meanings than the rose.
Red roses convey love, yellow roses are for friendship, white means purity, pink roses express gratitude and appreciation, peach shows sincerity and burgundy represents the deepest of passions.
Although she could grow almost anything, caring for her roses was a favorite pastime of my mothers. She loved this candle, because it smells just like the real thing. It's fresh and softly sweet aroma holds the true-to-life fragrance of roses and their subtle greenery.
To grow roses is a journey of perseverance. They need care and express caring.
I created Antique Rose Soy Candle as an ode to my mother, summertime and all the joy caring for her garden brought to her. I hope this very special candle brings you joy, too!
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose
