Red Roses ~

Most people think that the meaning of red roses is obvious. Yes, of course they convey love and romance, but also other traits as well :

• Passion
• Love 
• Romance
• (Dark red) Unconscious beauty
• Devotion
• Congratulations
• Respect
• Courage
• Authority

Those last few may surprise you. In certain cultures, highly respected dignitaries will often receive roses at events as a show of respect or authority. I'm not sure it would be the best thing to send to your boss though, for example, unless there's another message you wouldn't mind sending as well!

The romantic meaning of red roses goes back to at least the ancient Greek and Roman times. These flowers were associated with Venus, or Aphrodite, the goddess of love. They would often be displayed during weddings or other romantic celebrations.

Wake Up and Climb

Keep on moving, keep climbing,
Keep the faith,
It's all about, it's all about the climb,
Keep the faith, keep your faith.
