Water for Orchids: Revelations About Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781520672915)

Water for Orchids: (Love & Growth) - I became emotional. I thought of all the Orchids I have loved, and all of the beautiful ones I have thrown away. I felt so guilty. I felt so ashamed. I felt so hurt. That day, my teacher wasn't teaching me about a flower, God was teaching me about love, His love. After I contemplated what my teacher had told me that he his Orchids for 4 years, I thought to myself, what patience, what kindness, what beauty, and I thought to myself, oh how his love is so much greater than mine. Later on during that day when I was alone, I thought about my Orchids, and I cried. I cried for all those Orchids that I have loved and have thrown away; I cried for all those Orchids that I had ceased loving. The Orchids that I failed to nurture, that I failed to keep watering when they no longer resembled themselves. I felt so guilty, so uncompassionate, yet at the same time, I felt so humbled and so grateful that my father God was teaching this lesson about love, His love. Instantly, I became greater, my heart stronger. My heart more compassionate, my nurturing, more forgiving, more committed. I became stronger in love. I feel love all around me now. I feel more at peace. I'm truly looking forward to buying my next Orchid, and falling in love, knowing the buds will one day will fall off. I looking forward for the day, that I can nurture it, be patient with it, nurse it back to health, and waiting patiently for it to come back to me. These are letters to my Orchids, the one that I loved, and the ones whom have thrown away.
