“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.”
On that story, the little prince, fell in love instantly with a rose in his
asteroid. The little prince care so much to the rose. The rose with its thorns
seems defenseless and susceptible- and yet, she shows off her thorns and puts on
a superior attitude. But the rose’s vanity and demands cause the heartbreak of
the little prince. And thus, he decided to leave its asteroid and the rose. “She
cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from
her… I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little
stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love
her…” Just before the prince leaves, the rose said to it’s prince : “Of course I
love you,” the flower said to him. “It is my fault that you have not known it
all the while. That is of no importance. But you — you have been just as foolish
as I. Try to be happy…” On his voyage to the earth, he come across a huge rose
garden, and he realised that his roses were not the only one in the universe.
“There might be millions of roses in the whole world, but you’re my only one,
unique rose.” On the movie adaptation, the rose is the reason why the prince
come back to its asteroid even though it’s too late that the rose has dead. “. .
. One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything essential is invisible to the
eyes. . . . It’s the time that you spent on your rose that makes your rose so
important. . . . You become responsible for what you’ve tamed. You’re
responsible for your rose. . . .” The story was telling a beautiful story of
love. As the rose, we may take the love that’s being given as granted, and thus,
we forgot to ’taking care’ of the love itself. And as a little prince, we may
need to go around the world to realise that our rose is the only one because
‘anything essential is invisible to the eyes…’ Even though the rose is being
portrayed in the story as a vain, foolish, frail, and naïve creature, the little
prince loves that rose. Nothing ever goes away until it teaches us what we need
to know.#littleprince #rose #fox #art #love Tbilisi
