The WHITE ROSE in my eyes

It’s a pleasure to see flowers bloom and lining with different colors and sizes on their petals. I just saw these in pictures. Not that I never gone outside or in a garden. Yet I never saw the same scenario wherein flowers are aligning in a wide land area. I have seen a little garden with flowers, it is nice to look. We even have little garden before since my mother loves plants and flowers but as our clan grow a number; our space became narrower for us to have a garden. My mother used to care and bought plants and orchids which I never had. It’s not I hate gardening but it’s not my habit. I just love to see them bloom and grow. 

As I remember my mother planted red roses beside our little house. I forgot how many but my mother loves and excited to see it bloom. I just can’t help how and why but most of the people’s favorite flowers are the red roses. When you go near the church, you can see lots of red roses sold. During our retreat, we were given red roses to give it to our parents. And during our graduation in high school, we were also told to have red roses to give to our parents in the middle of our presentation as thanks giving. It was also during our Ring hop in college that we gave another red rose. Maybe most or generally consider red rose as sign of love based on its color too, it fits. But I go for a white rose.

I don’t know what pulls me to love white rose. I never have one. But seeing a white rose sold in a flower shop seems they are pulling my soul. I collected pictures of white rose and do a friendster account on it before. I just find it perfect. Watching it makes me feel calm and peaceful. I even promised to myself and make the white rose as sign of a man who will give me a white rose is the man I will marry. I never got flowers from my suitors or boy friends but I got a red rose from my crush on high school, though it’s just a set up. I love white roses even before and until now, but I don’t dare to buy one for I want to fulfill what I promise. But time is too short for me to wait who will be that man.

Everything changes when I met my current boy friend whom my fiancée now. He is planning to ask my hand from my parents this month. We’ve been together for almost 22 months and will be 23 next week. He is not type of person who will give chocolates and flowers at you. So, I never expect a white rose from him. Even though the man I loved and will marry will not give a white rose during our wedding but I consider him as the white rose in my eyes. I can’t admire any flowers more than how I look at the white rose. I feel so calm and at peace when I saw a white rose. I felt so in love with a white rose. It is just a white rose but it’s extraordinary for me that I can’t figure out how. I can’t explain really why I am attracted to a white rose and so as to my boy friend. I may not know what make me fall on him this much but I am so sure that he is the one I will marry and the one I love and will love over and over again.
