The Rage of Roses :
Sometimes, we use roses as a gift. Giving them to a loved one, your mom, and lover, in shorter terms.. Your family. Although a long time ago a dark past made roses what they are today....
" Behold, I give to this world a gift.. I give this land roses. Finest of all the flowers that may bloom in your kingdom. Use it wisely for there will be a big price to pay... " says the God whom is giving the gift. After a few days after a mortal discovering these rare new exotic plants, the Kingdom not to far off started cutting them all and selling them. Which caused their Kingdom to prosper beyond all imagination. Although they were being watched by the God who had given the gift. Using it for their own selfish desires as the god said before, a big price was to be payed.
" You mortals did not listen to my warning! Now your riches will be thrown away because of your own selfish desires! " says the God as she is filled with rage. Although the roses did not stop growing. Eventually every rose that the Kingdom has sold began to wilt. They have lost their life due to the mistake they made. Not only that but, thorns began to grow out of the stems which bloomed Roses. The Kingdom was brought to bewilderment. Why didn't she take away our prosperous roses? they asked. They didn't hesitate to ask, rather they just ran to the fields to pick as much roses as they could. Each one of the rose pickers got pricked
by the thorns which had not been there before.
Although when the Kingdom found out a way to get the roses without being pricked, the roses just wilted away after awhile. Soon the roses became just another plant and was ignored. No longer a praised godly item in the market today. People today even try making a rose that never wilts or never pricks you.. Through these are fake versions of what used to be.. the gift of the Gods.
Lesson Taught In this Myth :
Do not let yourself get blinded by self desires, for they wont last forever ( roses wilting )
Meaning of Thorns :
Thorns are why they are given to a loved one.. The thorns being at the bottom of the stem which remind you of pain and sorrow. Soon if you follow them up to the top, you find a beautiful treasure sitting in front of you.
