blossoming

my flowering plant has revived! :)

i thought i would never see it with leaves again, much more with flowers. about 3 or 4 months ago, the entire plant started to wilt. in december, all that was left of it was just probably its roots because there was nothing to be seen above the soil of its pot. but whola lowla when i came back from my birthday vacation, stems with leaves and tiny flower buds were coming out of the soil! now look at how healthy it is! and with flowers!!! :)

i had a post last year about this plant whose blossoming flowers i likened to my lovelife. ahem! :p last year, i felt strong affinities towards 3 people. no, not at the same time mind you! :p the plant somehow had been the living (and dying) representative of what went on with those feelings. i witnessed the wilting and blossoming of the flowers which i likened to feelings lost and gained or renewed. the one whom i had the greatest affection for even exclaimed that having blooming flowers entailed a good sign. he never answered me when i asked him why, though. probably he meant for new beginnings. at that time it really was. and it was good. it was lovely. i was happy. but over time, out of both neglect and the deepest sorrows, the plant started losing all its flower buds. until it lost all its leaves. until, in the end, it lost all of everything that could be seen above the soil. i lost a lot too. just about the same time. in december nothing was left of it. nothing was left of and for me.

i thought i lost my plant completely but as a lady neighbor told me that the plant i have is the type one can just leave anywhere and it will survive and keep on flowering. truly, my plant has revived itself complete with plenty of flower buds with two blooming already! i guess it has represented my feelings once again! i am revived. i am well. i am feeling healthy. and i am ready for new beginnings once again! :)

i am even more excited that i will be seeing more flowers blossoming soon. my plant bears more promise. and i have this great feeling that more promises will be springing out from where the sun rises. spring promises to be a wonderful season! :D can't wait for it! ;)
