Blooming Relationship

Flowers And Woman - A Sacred Union

Accumulation of feminine energy concentrated throughout the lands, naturally inclined towards flowers representing woman's inner and outer beauty.

Over eons of time flowers have been presented to woman as symbols, sentimental hidden secret is why woman are strongly attracted to flowers, remaining a riddle to most men.

Polite expression of similar reproductive yielding in life possibly partial reason for a woman's love of flowers, maybe the colour sends message of kindness, love, thoughtfulness, purity all expressions woman notice.

Assertive male counterpart will enjoy the perfume or delight in the bloom, he still prefers gadgets achieving end goal, we are not the same as to how we tick over....


Look carefully, Orchid Spike against tree trunk creeping into Golden Shower Hanging down.

Each flower has a country of origin, much like females from around the world blooming in different ways once reaching adulthood.

From love to appreciation flowers carry symbols, each colour may have a varied reason or deep reflection on the personality of an individual.

When young how often did we not pick some flowers from the open bush or fields to take home for Mum, not Dad!

Yes out of the mouths of babes this trait is ingrained into our very fiber as to our close association with flowers and woman in our lives.

Some flowers hide their inner beauty, much like the extremely shy!

When we reach older age, shed knowledge, empower more, always share life lessons learned, someone is always listening.

Flowers teach life long lessons even when interpreted by poets, musicians, writers or teachers with deeper knowledge on particular species.

Recently chatting with @dswigle about a flower we both enjoy, seeing her delightful photography last week. This got me thinking how very much we enjoy flowers.

Carnation
Represents:
Red: love, pride, admiration and passion and romance
Pink: love, thoughtfulness and affection and romance
Purple: capriciousness, impulsive and unpredictable
Yellow: disdain, rejection and disappointment
White: innocence, purity, pure love and good health

Whether flowers bring warmth and happiness following the sunlight as the Sunflowers do, take time and bloom when ready there is no rush. Smile brightly stand tall, being well grounded and have faith in tomorrow always.

Closing off the Chili Bush in flower two months ago...

Fiery warm passion beginning to grow, these little red devils I will relate as to how delicious they are when in a pot of warm curry or sambals when ripened to satisfaction. (A gift from a young lady leaving our shores, said farewell with living flowers.)

Flowers And Woman - A Sacred Union

So true.

Over here if a man wants to get married he goes with his people and he tells the girl’s family that he has found a flower in their garden(girl’s family).

Virginity is also associated with flower, when a girl loses her virginity she is said to have been deflowered

Women and flowers are both beautiful in unique ways even though I never understood why women are so drawn to flowers, it is a justifying likeness that I like about them both. Maybe it is because I like flowers too and perfumes of course.

Many have a flower they prefer for some reason, deep within psyche.

When teenage girls pick a daisy with thought of a guy they fancy, will pull the petals "love me, love me not" to decern outcome !LOLZ

If you want to kill a flower, just give it to me. I don't want to kill it, but it will happen 😉

Lovely flowers and these butterflies are beautiful - love the little monkey 😊

I don't pick to put in the house, they last better in the garden. Have enjoyed the small faces of 'weeds' as pretty as all the rest !LUV tiny yellow blooms!

Monkey having fun eating them perhaps that is how petals have become fashionable to humans to now eat them as well. 😗

Oh yes, you only have to look closer to see that weeds are also lovely - actually, since I have no garden I have no reason to call any plant "weed" 😉 !LOLZ

Here they sometimes decorate food with flower petals - it looks nice, but I don't need such things as long as the food tastes good ... !PIZZA usually comes without flowers but !LUV tthem anyway 😁

Ha ha agree who decides it's a weed, many are edible weeds too, although I am not in the habit of putting flowers in food, enjoy photographing them.

Every day we have at least one hard storm in the late afternoon - many trees break or get derooted by the storms, and many damages all around, but we have been lucky - no damages here yet.
I think we'll have to live with these weather situations, and in a few years we'll be used of it. We have had the same weather as we have now as long as I can think back, but just not so hard.

Tomorrow I will drive with my wife to our daughter to Lower Austria and I think I will be offline till Sunday ... so I'm wishing you an awesome weekend with !LUV and ! PIZZA and best weather 😊🌞

Drive safely and have a fun weekend with the family.

Storms are much the same as we have had over the years, cycles in weather I don't think have anything to worry about.

!LOLZ Worry gets you nowhere.

I remember Zac's stories about such storms and me telling him that I can't imagine having such storms here ... now I can.

I pretty much only deliver my wife to my daughter, then we visit our niece who lives in the next village. In the evening I leave them to spend the night in my van and on Saturday I go to a gorge and later I drive to a lake and then towards home, what might take till Sunday.

My wife's gonna stay with my daughter and the niece till Tuesday and then return home with my niece and her baby in their car.
My son and I are responsible for the balcony flowers and for the cats - not the easiest job 😂 !LOLZ

Thanks and you have a great time too 🌞

Nicely planned giving you time to meander back via back roads and gorges, seeking out a place of solitude, hope the storms leave you alone for one night at least.

Too much responsibility !LOLZ
Happy hunting photography !LUV
!PIZZA for a snack along the way saves on cooking.

I slowly begin to hate my work, because it doesn't leave me time for anything else anymore 😅 !LOLZ
After busy days I don't even want to turn the computer on at home and even editing photos doesn't make fun, so I have edited only 3 photos from last weekend.

The weekend was short and I didn't photograph a lot, although I've had the whole gorge for me alone - the crowds arrived when I was almost back at the van 😁

Saturday we've had a massive hailstorm, but the cars seem to be fine ... we'll see more when they are washed - maybe we shouldn't wash them 😉

Hope you've had a lovely weekend and the new week has started well.

They try eat up all your time in the last years going in, knowing soon you will be out of reach. Hope the person training in is putting in effort, I made the two taking over from me sign to say they fully understood, cocky "know all attitude". Month later asked me back and I refused.

Gorge all to yourself must have been uplifting, a short quiet break, photography looks relaxing capturing stream ambling down the hill.

Hail is the worst, here insurance companies warn you as they approaching due to cost if not under cover, hope they are not pockmarked.

Nice weather over the weekend, now back to cooler weather which is also fine with cold wind and sunshine. !LOLZ

Sending !LUV hope the week is not so taxing, a slice of !PIZZA for tea break.

There were hailstones up to the size of tennis balls, but luckily not in our area, but a couple of kilometres away the cars of our friends have been destroyed. Our cars have got only a few small dents.

It's a week like all weeks are at the moment ...😅 ... and the next two weekends I'll be working too. At the beginning of September I'll have a week off and right after this week I have a week of training, because we get an apprentice and I will be responsible for her.

Hope the weather stays nice down there and you'll have a great weekend, which is only a day away 😊🌞

Large damaging hail stones rip through everything, good to hear you were not badly hit.

I got to see your YouTube video with sunrise on the lake, so peaceful to look at hearing no sound of people around, just water lapping the shores, nice calming video.

Enjoy the week off, you will need the energy to train once again. Hope this time the new arrival settles into the position.

Weather is apparently going to get cool over the weekend once again with another round of snow in the mountains.

At places these hail stones have been even bigger. We are very well insured, but the waiting time to get the car repaired is very long at the moment 😉 !LOLZ so I am happy that we were quite lucky.

Such calm mornings with no man made sounds are the best way to start the day - thank you 😀

If everything goes as planned we'll get the apprentice and also two new people which we really need, because for quite a long time we have done their work additionally to ours. But it's hard to find people for our office - too much and complicated work ... so many different things to learn and do 😅

We didn't have any storm nor rain in the past few days and today looks nice too. The weekend might also be nice, I believe. I'm working tomorrow, but I still have Sunday if I'm not too tired from night shift.

Have a wonderful Friday Joan 🌞

Thankfully we do get a little warning and have always been able to park under cover so far!

To be away from man-made noise would be the ultimate nature is calming 😅...

After years of service, problem always arises with requiring more than one to take over, we do tend to take on more over the years, bosses only realize this once you leave.

Enjoy a short walk on Sunday to relax even if you tired it makes one feel a little better to clean brain fog out.... !LUV

We also get warnings, but we park on a public parking lot in front of our apartment house. My wife has a thick hail blanket, but even this one doesn't help when the hail stones are as big as tennis balls. We were lucky though and hopefully we'll be lucky next time.

I'm almost at the end of my 24-hour shift and guess what weather we have ... it's raining. Still, I will not drive directly home but make a detour over a mountain. Maybe I'm lucky and the clouds clear up ...

When we get all three people everything will be fine after they have been trained for a couple of months, then I might be able to relax a little bit at work 😅 !LOLZ

Wishing you a wonderful Sunday Joan 😊🌞

Many men enjoy cultivating, experiencing as to how they grow through grafts, more technical. Ours is a more simple enjoyment of walking through the fields, everyone loves flowers.
