Those are the sort who crush rose petals underfoot and never take in their scent or spread them along the path a women takes. Reading your jottings always gives me pleasure. Will update you where I am at on soup mail soon my friend.

Humble flowers deliver what they were created to do, much better than haughty humans who think they know it all! A Maltese proverb says: "Do not soil the spring you want to drink from!" Regards // paul

Flowers always beautify; and you are right about heartless, thoughtless men.
