Variegated Tulips

I have been thinking somewhat about what I should write. However, nothing inspirational came up. It's like that saying, "If you ain't got nothing nice to say, then don't say nothing". It is not that I was going to come up here and spout off some gossip or drama but for me it's, "If i'm not inspired to say anything, then say nothing". HaHa. Not exactly the same, but similar.

Anyhow, I was walking to the other building at work and I noticed a leaf on the ground. It reminded me of a Variegated Tulip. Then I remember that I had written something about Variegated Tulips before but I just didn't remember WHERE! Searched on Facebook Notes. Nothing. Searched my Hard Drive. Nothing. Searched another blog website. Nothing. Search came out empty. THEN! THEN! I remembered that I had actually written about a Variegated Tulip to one of my bestest friends who was going through a rather hard time.

This is what I wrote:

Aren't they so beautiful?
I don't know if you know this, but these tulips look this way because they're infected with a type of Mosaic Virus. In a metaphorical way we can apply it to our lives.

Sometimes we think that because of bad things that infect our lives, like the virus, we think that we look ugly, or that no one would want us or desire us. But it's actually the opposite. We are still beautiful and desirable. No matter what we go through, the trials we have to face, the stupid people we have to put up with, and the persecution that comes through no fault of our own... we will always be beautiful! Just like the infected tulip.

Not that I'm saying you are virally infected... HaHa... But just that no matter the troubles you've faced, or the imperfections you feel you have, it only makes you a different kind of beautiful. Rather than a fully red, or a fully yellow tulip, you are your own kind of beautiful.


Remember: What makes you different makes you beautiful. 

Therefore, You Are Your Own Kind of Beautiful.
