Everybody knows the phrase, "Stop and smell the roses." But, what exactly are "roses"? Each person has a different definition of what they are exactly. For me, it's as simple as feeling the wind move every strand of hair, or finding the perfect photograph. For others it could be more complicated, but why? Why does it have to be something extraordinary?
A lot of people go about their lives without even finding a single rose. I feel bad for those types. To see the beauty of life itself is something one could truly never replicate. Whether its seeing the wings of a hummingbird for a moment, or watching the sunset with your significant other, it's still a rose.
The misconception people have with the phrase is exactly what I'm saying. They don't know what a "rose" is. Don't be one of those people. Go, drive to the middle of a huge field, stand there, and listen. To what exactly? Listen to the wind, twisting its way between the leaves, or to the birds singing of happiness.
Ultimately, I think the rose is peace. Whatever you find peaceful, that is truly what your rose is. So, make a promise to yourself. Once every week, or even every month, go take care of your roses. Make sure they're blooming and healthy. Why? Because they'll wither and die if you don't, so take care of your roses. One day you'll look back, and the roses will be what you remember.
