Our Heart, mind and soul can be strong but fragile at the same time.
As a Rose need thorns, we need trust in ourselves is take care of what makes us strong.
"If I were just a nameless flower
Blooming in a field
Then I could simply
Let myself blow in the wind

But I was born to the destiny of the rose
Born to a brilliant and tempestuous life
The rose, the rose blooms nobly
The rose, the rose perishes beautifully" -Bara wa Utsukushiku Chiru
