In a small village surrounded by hills, there lived a young man named Ram. He was gentle and had a deep appreciation for beauty. Every day, Ram would visit the village garden, where rows of beautiful roses grew. Among them, there was one rose he loved the most—a deep red one with soft petals and a sweet fragrance. Ram would spend hours just looking at it, never picking it because he believed its beauty was meant to be admired, not taken.
In the same village lived a young woman named jessy. She was kind and beautiful, with bright eyes and a smile that could light up any room. jessy often noticed Ram standing by the rose, lost in thought. Curious, one day she walked up to him and asked, “Why do you come here every day to look at this rose?”
Ram smiled and said, “This rose is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. But it’s not just about how it looks. The thorns protect it, just like we protect the things we care about. I don’t pick the rose because I don’t want to hurt it. I just want to appreciate its beauty.”
jessy was touched by his words. “You talk about the rose as if it were a person,” she said softly.
Ram nodded. “Love is like a rose. We admire the beauty of someone we love, but real love means respecting them and not causing them pain. Just like I don’t pick this rose, we shouldn’t try to possess the people we love. We should let them grow in their own way.”
As time passed, Ram and jessy became close friends. They often met in the garden, talking about life, love, and nature. They understood each other deeply and knew that love was not about owning someone but about appreciating them.
Ram’s feelings for jessy grew stronger over time, but he knew that love, like a rose, needed to be nurtured with patience. So he waited, allowing their friendship to blossom naturally.
One day, jessy gave Ram a gift—a small potted rose, just like the one in the garden. “This is for you,” she said. “A reminder that love, like a rose, is most beautiful when it’s allowed to grow freely.”
Ram accepted the rose with gratitude. “Thank you, jessy. This rose will always remind me of our friendship and the love that has grown between us.”
Their love, like the rose, blossomed beautifully. It was a love full of respect, admiration, and the joy of seeing each other grow. Ram and jessy continued to visit the garden, now hand in hand, knowing that true love was not about possession but about letting the one you love bloom in their own way.
In the end, the rose became a symbol of their love
a love that was pure, unselfish, and beautiful.
