Dry Roses Do Bloom

So whilst gardening today, I noticed a rather peculiar thing. Around six or seven months ago, I had planted a few rose sprouts into my garden, that were green to begin with, but soon turned brown, and looked nothing more than dead twigs. Around the same time I had set my mind on a few goals, some of them of Love and some of Life and Living.

Now it should come as no surprise, that every plant inside a garden, great or small, woody or evergreen, requires nurturing, water, pruning and care. And in the same way, so do our dreams. But these rose stalks seemed long past dead, with little chance of revival at all. And in the same manner, life, like weeds, took over my garden, stealing all my water, attention and care...Until eventually, my dreams, like rose bushes, withered, wilted and dried.

But here's the thing about a dream...Like roses during a dry season, or during a Winter's spell, are bound to look barren, and beyond the point of no return...But...That's not to say that they need any less water than any other plant in your garden. They're simply waiting for the right time and season to sprout. So continue to nurture your nature, and naturally things will fall into their place...And sooner or later, your dreams...Like roses, in Springtime...Will bloom.
