The Bougainvillea That Reluctant to Pale

In the past, I never really cared about bougainvillea. For me, it was just a flower that was often found on people's fences, blooming as it pleased without asking permission. But one Wednesday I was walking in a narrow alley near my house, and at the end of the road there was a very lush red bougainvillea tree. Its red color glowed in the afternoon sun, contrasting with the dull wall behind it.

For some reason, I stopped. I noticed its thin petals, like tissue paper that could be torn by strong winds. But it turned out, it was strong. It didn't fall easily even though the wind was blowing quite hard at that time.

From there, I just realized something. This bougainvillea is like people who are often underestimated, considered ordinary, but are actually tough. It can grow in dry soil, in hot places, even in the gaps in fences that are only given a little space to live. But it still blooms, and even looks striking.

Since that day, I started to like bougainvillea. Especially the red one. It feels like it doesn't care about the soft and calm color rules of other flowers. It's bright red, almost bold. Maybe if this red bougainvillea could talk, it would say, "Life's too short to be pale."🙃

They are so beautiful and look so fragile and yet are stong and resilient

and thus reaches Earth's surface.

It’s amazing how nature balances fragility with resilience—delicate yet enduring, just like life itself!

Thank you so much! 🙏
