wilting and blooming

i bought a flowering plant early last month. i failed to ask the auntie selling the plants about the name of the plant i bought so i don't know what it is that i bought! :p when i bought it, it had two flowers already. when sue saw it, she exclaimed that it's beautiful coz the flowers looked like wild roses.

the flowers would last for about a week. and since the plant has been with me for two months already, i've witnessed flowers wilt and flowers blossom. there was never a time that my plant had no flowers. every time a flower wilts and dies, at least one comes alive and blooms. just this weekend, as the biggest and only flower so far that i had in a week was wilting, two new buds started to bloom. and just tonight when i got home, one had already opened up. and it's the most beautiful flower i had seen from this plant. so far! :D


isn't it a beauty? you should see it in person, err, in flower! :p that's just the first to open up among the three buds i had last weekend. here's the other baby i'm expecting to smile tomorrow.


and here's the youngest for this week!

aren't they beautiful??? :D

looking at these flowers, i somehow liken my lovelife to them or to the plant as a whole. as i said, last week i had the biggest and the only flower in a week. in a way it's similar to my affinity towards someone whom i thought could be the biggest love of my life. why so? well, because of him i contemplated of staying put in a relationship (if ever it happened) or in a house with him (if ever i could afford one hehehe). but there's no relationship to speak of. just like the wonderful large flower i had the past week, the biggest love that could have been wilted and died away. not that i fell out of love, i just had to stop it. there are things that are meant to be, not meant to be, and meant not to be. this big thing with someone was just meant not to be.

good thing that a new flower bloomed, and the most beautiful one at that (remember the first pic?). it gives me hope. despite losing the biggest, wonderful, and also beautiful flower last week, this new flower has very much compensated for that loss. it's just lovely that it makes me smile every time i see it. :) and it makes me think that there might really be something beautiful in store for me with someone else. and with two more flowers blooming after it, maybe there's going to be plenty of them... hmmm, handsome guys, i hope! hehehe

i'll always remember that biggest flower. i'll always remember him. i think fondly of that big flower. i think fondly of him and constantly wish for success in his endeavors. and since i've made memories out of that flower that wilted and out of my feelings for him, there's nothing more for me to do anymore than to keep on looking at my new most beautiful flower and to keep watch for someone wonderful coming along.
