Smell the Roses

“The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose.” – Kahlil Gibran

Legend says red roses first bloomed from Adonis’s blood, born of Aphrodite’s deep love—a symbol of passion and eternal life. In Christian lore, they echo Christ’s sacrifice, yet they also embody earthly love, purity, and devotion. The rose is more than a flower; it’s a story of grace, beauty, and the powerful bond of love.
