A rose is a common woody plant that prides itself on being fragrant and blushing. The most beautiful precious flower surrounds itself with powerful protections, its thorns. A distant gaze may trick one into believing this delicate creation is docile, pretty, and submissive. But look closer, and it’s easy to see the flower is the opposite. One wrong grab or pluck and one could be left bleeding from the wounds the flower causes. Looks can be deceiving. Some of the most beautiful creations can trick our minds into believing they’re harmless even when they aren’t.
