Flowers Truly Reach Your Soul
Flowers are a simple, sincere and unobtrusive way to lift our spirits. They can bring a smile to a tired face or brighten up a room for someone who is under the weather. Scientific research shows that flowers and plants have a beneficial impact on state of mind and emotions. Rutgers University behavioral studies have proven that flowers provide a simple way to improve emotional health. The presence of flowers triggers happy emotions, heightens feelings of life satisfaction and affects social behavior in a positive manner far beyond what is normally believed. Did you know that flowers also help relieve stress? They can help you relax and stay calm, awaken erotic feelings and increase your sexual drive? They enhance the capacity for emotional depth. They can help us get rid of hidden fears and cope with anger or pain. Words reach your mind, while flowers truly reach your soul. Throughout our hectic, fast-paced lives, we seek to rejuvenate ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Flowers, in conjunction with their design and color schemes, create feelings that enhance our moods. Imagery has been used for relaxation and stress reduction for ages. It is simply creating a mental picture or scene that can help soothe and relax you. But what picture can be more soothing and relaxing than an image of flowers. So, just imagine your favorite flower. Are you smiling yet? You are definitely in a different mood. There is no doubt that beautiful surroundings provide us with a special environment that helps us thrive. Flowers are an easy and affordable way to add a splash of color and emotion into your life. Copyright © 2005 1 Stop Shopping Online.com. All Rights Reserved.

The Voiceless
WE count the broken lyres that rest
Where the sweet wailing singers slumber,
But o'er their silent sister's breast
The wild-flowers who will stoop to number?
A few can touch the magic string,
And noisy Fame is proud to win them:
Alas for those that never sing,
But die with all their music in them!Nay, grieve not for the dead alone
Whose song has told their hearts' sad story,--
Weep for the voiceless, who have known
The cross without the crown of glory!
Not where Leucadian breezes sweep
O'er Sappho's memory-haunted billow,
But where the glistening night-dews weep
On nameless sorrow's churchyard pillow.O hearts that break and give no sign
Save whitening lip and fading tresses,
Till Death pours out his longed-for wine
Slow-dropped from Misery's crushing presses,--
If singing breath or echoing chord
To every hidden pang were given,
What endless melodies were poured,
As sad as earth, as sweet as heaven!Reflections on 'Voice'My wife and I recently attended a showing of "Rwanda" - an unforgettable and harrowing experience.
