SMALL LILAC
THE BEAUTY OF SMALL THINGS
There are small things that make our lives more worth living: an evening spent with friends, playing with your pet or buying something beautiful like your favorite cake or a bouquet of flowers!
THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS
A floriography, or a language of flowers, means communicating certain ideas by using special types and colors of flowers. This branch of knowledge is very old, and some time ago was considered to be necessary for aristocrats and educated people. People in both Eastern and Western countries used to attribute special meanings to their bouquets. They gifted flowers in order to express their feelings and emotions in a more sophisticated way. For example:
- It is very common to give roses, especially red roses to a beloved woman. It is understandable, since red roses symbolize passionate romantic love. However, different colors bring different meanings to this flower. Pink color also means love but with a lesser grade of commitment. White color represents purity and chastity. Yellow roses mean friendship and devotion.
- Lilies are majestic flowers. There are symbols of richness and prosperity all over the world. In Ancient Egypt people believed that lilies represented purity, and used to put them on bodies of young women who passed away. In modern France they represent respect and justice, so when you receive a bouquet of white lilies in this country, it is a huge honor.
- Narcissuses mean attention, attraction and strong feelings. Yellow narcissuses symbolize unrequited love.
- Lilacs are usually connected with first love or strong tender feelings. Pink, white and violet flowers all mean declaration of love. This is a spring flower, so it is especially nice to present them at the beginning of the relationships as a symbol of a newborn love. They have a very strong but pleasant smell, and look adorable. Small lilac in some countries are believed to bring good luck. You need to find a 5-petals flower, eat it and make a wish.
