RE: The Beauty of a Rose

in #seewhatisee7 years ago (edited)

I know that some women, maybe even most women, love to receive flowers.
Especially roses. That is the tradition that has been adopted for many years now.
When I grew up. We lived out in the country as the Amish did.
Maybe even more so than the Amish of today.
I never ever saw anything like what money is spent on today in all the years that I grew up.
I am not saying it is wrong. If that is what it takes. I would buy two or three dozens roses. But, at the same time. I wouldn't understand it.
I understand steak, candy, cakes, etc.
Flowers that cannot be replanted or otherwise saved.
It doesn't meet my criteria of sensible and reasonable purchases.
That comes from my background and youthful training.
Could I be retrained? Ha ha
Thank you

I agree with you and thats why I've never really been a "flower girl" because they will just die in about a week and be gone.
BUT, there's also that special feeling I get when I see the delivery guy walking through the building in search for Mrs. Bandit. Everyone in the office tells me how lucky I am and I agree.
Lord knows I don't need any candy or cakes, but now we will celebrate with a nice dinner whenever I can get off of work.
Every man can be retrained with the appropriate teacher!
