Purple, violet, indigo – they are some of my favorite colors. Purple is often associated with royalty, nobility, and luxury, as well as spirituality, imagination, and creativity. It’s also considered the color of the higher self.
Self-love and self-care are very important for our well-being both physically and emotionally. That’s why today I am asking you what you have done just for yourself lately. It could be anything – enjoying a hobby, making yourself a gift, setting aside time for relaxation or a pampering activity, etc. So, what was your way to take care of yourself these days?
The camera can’t catch the actual color of this rose very well, but in person, it’s very interesting. It’s a light lavender color; a very rare rose, in my opinion, or at least I haven’t seen such blooms often. What about you?

So those are the meanings of the purple? It’s good to know. Well, today I was reediting my articles on Hubpages and reasing posts on Virily.
People have assigned a very special meaning to this color; I love it.
what have I done for myself. I watched a series of Parrot videos that made me spew coffee all over my office.
The office now smells like coffee!!
now the rose, actually I have seen such a rose before, but my wife’s first visit in every city she and I go to is the Bontanical Garnes of that city!!!!
I love combining things, so now this reminds me of a video of some funny parrots trying to drink coffee/tea but the cups are too tall and they are basically “drinking” air. Which is good, I believe these drings are unhealthy for them.
It’s great you visit such places during your trips!
my wife loves going to them!
I like this challenge. I am grateful that I work in a house with a yard during the blockade and have the opportunity to do laps and maintain a sports uniform during the day.Wonderful rose Eli
Thank you! It’s great you can spend enough time doing outdoor activities!
I love this one. I have had this rose in my garden and posted a picture of it earlier. It suddenly seem to wilt and die and no matter what I did to save it couldn’t help save this rose.
That’s a pity; it’s a very interesting rose.
It’s my first time to see it.
It seems to be a rare type. Thank you for stopping by!
That is just stunning and very professional. You are correct about it being hard to shoot, and you, again have shown us a true beauty. Thank you.
I have been spending a lot time in the yard, and taking pictures of it. lol Also, the house is spotless, laundry done, closets are organized. I was thinking about refinishing a side table next. Staying occupied is good for the mental health. Stay well my friend.
Answering the poll. What have I done just for myself? I answered it above. Playing in the yard. Its very therapeutic. Have you seen such roses before. Yes, twice in my life. Once when I was around 7 a friend of my moms had rare roses, she even had a black one. And again, I was at McDonald’s near me, and as I was in the drive thru, I looked to my left and noticed two of these. I took pictures, but that was years ago. I can’t find them.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Kim! I agree completely that keeping ourselves occupied is very important. It’s great you can enjoy the yard! I don’t have that right now, but it’s also quite cold outside, so I am okay for now.
I used to have a love-hate relationship with these roses, because they sometimes look almost gray and washed out depending on their stage and the light. But I love their uniqueness.
I was just thinking the same thing about the cold. Its been very chilly on and off this spring, we even just got snow in the mountains yesterday.
We had snow once the fruit trees started blooming, but there was hardly any snow during the winter. Crazy weather.
We have a similar rose in the park. Hope to see it blooming this year!
I hope everything is back to normal by the time roses start blooming.
Beautiful and very rare color for a rose
Thank you so much! The one in the background shows the actual color a bit better.
A beautiful flower. I haven’t seen her in that color before. I spend a lot of time walking these days.
Thank you! It’s wonderful you have the opportunity to enjoy some walks. 🙂
This was my Mom’s favorite color. Beautiful. Never seen one.
Thank you so much, Carol! It’s a very interesting rose indeed.
This rose is so beautiful. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your kind words!
