flowers.

these things represent so many things. love. vanity. fragility. nature. how a very simple object projects so many things is a mystery to me. nevertheless, flowers are subject to one of the most misunderstood events of a human individual's life: courting.

courting..hmm..sounds fun..not much of a challenge, right?WRONG!!
courting is never easy..well at least for those who court for the sake of true, honest luv, not money or lust..but LUV..when men(in this generation however, boys) court, they don their best clothes, get their best hairstyle, spray their bodies with suffocating perfume and memorize mushy lines from equally mushy love songs..then when they (think they) are ready, they proceed to the girl's place and stay for a while, chatting until the break of dawn..some guys, who are still stuck in the era of their granparents bring guitars with them and and render a song, in an attempt to attract the love interest (of course, it's proven that when a guy serenades a gal, the guy attracts the attention of barking dogs if not the irritated faces of the gal's parents)..others try to get the side of the folks, by courting the mother first..you see, it's common belief that if you court the mommy, you get the gally(one of my pathetic attempts of making good quotes)..once the mother likes you, then visiting the girl won't be that hard..there's a risk, however..by paying attention to the mom, there's a tendency that the girl will get annoyed if not jealous..afterall, she's the reason why the guy's doing all these hard work..result?the girls dumps the guy, which is a staggering blow to the guy's reputation(and if the he's emotional, his self-esteem)..

of course, the key to a girl's heart is not the number of your attempts to get her attention, nor the amount of money you spend to give her gifts, nor your irresistable smile, heck, not even your deep love for her..in fact all of these are useless if you don't have patience..yes patience..if you really love someone, you must be patient..you never know the girl is just testing your endurance..always remember that love is patient..if you are agrresive and hasty on your actions even if you feel so much love and affection, you will almost always get a resounding "no" from the fair damsel..

take it from me..gifts and looks and intentions are nothing w/out patience..and w/out patience, then that's not love you're feeling my friend.......
