To pick a rose you ask your hands to bleed. What is the reason for having roses when your blood is shed...?

We are the roses in the garden, beauty with thorns among our leaves.

To pick a rose you ask your hands to bleed.

What is the reason for having roses when your blood is shed carelessly?

It must be for something more than vanity.

We all must have a level of excitement and busyness in our lives. My personal opinion is that we each have a set point for these emotions that we need to satisfy. Unfortunately mine is rather low, so while I am boring to some, I am also easily appeased. :*) In other words, without the rose, we have nothing to yearn for- but without the blood, there is no glory in attaining the rose.

Also, you can just mow the damned things down and plant something useful like raspberries or zuccinni.

Reply:Excellent analogy Orpheus. A rose is a thing of exquisite beauty and marvelous fragrance. It also has it's darker side (thorns). However, with proper respect, care, and attention to detail, it is still possible to pluck a rose without gloves or shears and walk off with the prize. The same can be said for ANYTHING of beauty and goodness. They ALL have their dark sides, BUT, with respect, care, and attention to detail, you can still win the prize without being harmed.

Reply:Thorns are an adaptation of the plant to keep brontotheres from eating the fruit. there is a tree in Africa that giraffes love to eat, and when the giraffes graze, the plant puts out a bitter taste, and the giraffes move on. Not only does the tree that was being chewed upon send up this bitterness, but any surrounding trees in the vicinity also put out this taste so that they are not eaten into oblivion by greedy grazers.
Reply:Or you could put on a pair of gardening gloves and take care of the problem toot sweet.
