A Rose From Within
![]() |
A certain man planted a rose and watered
It faithfully, and before it
blossomed, he examined it., He saw the bud
that would soon blossom
and also the thorns. And he thought, "How
can any beautiful flower
come from a plant burdened with so many
sharp thorns?" Saddened by
this thought, he neglected to water the rose,
and before it was ready to bloom, it died.
So it is with many people. Within every soul
there is a rose . The God-like
qualities planted in us at birth grow amid the
thorns of our faults. Many of us
look at ourselves and see only the thorns, the
defects. We despair, thinking that
nothing good can possibly come from us. We
neglect to water the good within us,
and eventually it dies. We never realize our
potential. Some people do not see
the rose within themselves; someone else
must show it to them. One of the
greatest gifs a person can possess is to be
able to reach past the thorns and
find the rose witin others. This is the
characteristic of love, to look at a
person, and knowing his faults, recognize
the nobility in his soul, and help
him realize that he can overcome his faults.
If we show him the rose, he will
conquer the thorns. Then will he blossom,
blooming forth thirty, sixty, a
hundred-fold as it is given to him. Our duty
in this world is to help others by
showing them their roses and not their thorns.
Only then can we achieve the love
we should feel for each other; only then can
we bloom in our own garden.

A Beatiful White Rose

There is a Rose That Stands above all The Rest!!
It is The Color of Faith, The Color of the Pure of Heart!
The Rose in Color is White!
It is given with so much Love...
For it is of a Deep Understanding of what we like others to know...
The Knowledge of our Heart and Soul...
It is untouched from the Hard words of life...
The Words no human should speak or Hear...
For The White Rose Represents The Pureness of The World Of Love we all long to Know...
The Peace we long to see....
The Rose of White holds all The Glory of a Starlit Night.
And sends you all The Moonlight Memories of the Love we Long to embrace!
Take this White Rose from my Heart!
And let it be your Beacon of the Night!
For with Love of Pure Heart you will always Hear and see the Beauty of The White Rose...
Love of Friendship Love of Peace.
This is what I send to Thee!

Love is a rose that blooms in the garden of the heart.
Precious and prized it comes in infinite varieties.
Yet each new love is fresh and unique there never has been nor ever will be a love just like it.
Love is rooted in caring, nourished by sharing and warmth by kindness from the promise of a budding love, to the glory of full blown love, every unfolding moment of love has a beauty all it's own.
Love takes tending.
It may need weeding or pruning to grow stronger.
Love can hold pain, too the thorns of misunderstanding or absence.
But still, with careful nurturing, love can find it's way over and around or through all obstacles.
Love transforms the heart holding love, for however long or brief a time, calls forth what is deepest, truest and best in the heart.
Every heart touched by love is reborn, filled with the miracle of new life.
Love blooms forever in springtime hearts.

The Rose
![]() |
It is only a tiny rose bud, a flower of God's design.
But I cannot unfold the petals with these clumsy hands of mine.
The secret of unfolding flowers is not known to such as I.
The flower God opens so sweetly in my hands would fade and die.
If I cannot unfold a rosebud this flower of God's design.
Then how can I think I have wisdom to unfold this life of mine?
So I'll trust in him for his leading each moment of every day,
And I'll look to him for his guidance each step of the pilgrim way.
For the pathway that lies before me my Heavenly Father knows I'll trust Him to unfold the moments just as He unfolds the rose.

A Dozen Roses

There is nothing more beautiful or romantic then to give someone you love a dozen roses.
It lets them know how much you love them and that you care enough to give them one of the most beautiful symbols of love that anyone can give.
The rose stands for love, and is understood all around world.
So what are you waiting for-- SEND THOSE ROSES!

The Rose

The rose is the symbol of transience, of
spring and beauty, of completion and
perfection. It is a symbol of love and
metamorphosis of passion.

The rose is fairest when it is budding new,
and hope is brightest when it dawns from
fears; The rose is sweetest washed with
morning dew, and love is loveliest when
embalmed in tears. O wilding rose, whom
fancy thus endears, I bid your blossoms in
my bonnet wave, emblem of hope and love
through future years !
*~Sir Walter Scott~*
A Rose Is Like A Woman
![]() |
God created the rose in likeness of a woman.
The rose represents beauty. The stem
represents strength. The petals are soft as
skin. The fragrance pure and sweet. The
leaves represent arms outstretched, always
loving and giving. Each time you look at this
rose, remember God made you special!

One Little Rose
![]() |
I would rather have one little rose from the
garden of a friend, then to have the choicest
flowers when my stay on earth must end.
I would rather have one pleasant word in
kindness said to me, then flattery when the
heart is still and life has ceased to be.
I would rather have a loving smile from
friends I know are true, then tears shead
round my casket when this world I've bid
adieu.
Bring me all your flowers today whether
pink, or white, or red; I'd rather have one
blossom now then a truckload when I'm
dead.
