I was once in the burial of a friend's father. Our friend asked us to take a flower from the bouquets, if they wanted to. I can't say no to flowers, let alone roses, especially red flowers. So I took a beautiful red rose.
With the rose in my hand, I greeted the acquaintances of yesteryear, as often happens on those occasions. A little bit, jokingly, I was told to see the flower. What, has the PSOE been done?
The only person told me that I had a beautiful flower, without referring to the Spanish party, and I told him what the others had said to him. He told me that we have also been robbed of the symbolism of flowers and that we should not leave them.
My friend's phrase made me reflect. The queen of flowers, symbol of passion, forever linked to a political party. And I don't care about the ideology of that aspect, which will always bring our brains together.
And how much of that in history! The Svástica was also stolen by an ideology, and criminalized forever, as a solar symbol in many villages.
We've been robbed of the red rose. So, let us appreciate what the roses are, to enjoy a pure beauty, nothing else.

I'd like to write to this thing that I'm inside. Almost five years have passed since the pandemic, and those of us who were young at the time, although we are still young, have begun to orbit in other spaces. Housing, the project of life, maternity, work, health... the agendas of... [+]
