TO LOVE A ROSE by Tahlia Hunter

"TO LOVE A ROSE"
by Tahlia Hunter

“How can you love without pain?” she asked.

“Love is not about ownership, but appreciation.

The secret of love may be found in this rose.

To love the rose

is not to possess it or to pluck it

but to savour its beauty

and witness its magnificence

and in the process,

to be made more beautiful.

This is how you may love even when the one you love is not near you, even when the one you love is no longer with you and even when the one you love knows not of you. Because love is not found outside of you, but is found within you, for it is a way of seeing and engaging with the world.

To love

is to be inspired

and to be transformed for the better.

And so there is no pain in loving, because to love is not to lose anything, but to gain everything.”
