#flowers

Oh, spring? More like "sneeze season" for me! It's like Mother Nature decided to play a cruel joke by unleashing her floral army just to see how many tissues I can go through in a day. Honestly, I'm starting to suspect that trees are secretly plotting against me. Every time I step outside, it's like walking into a battlefield of pollen. My nose has declared war on the entire plant kingdom, and let me tell you, it's not winning. So, while everyone else is frolicking in fields of flowers, I'm over here stockpiling antihistamines like a doomsday prepper. Springtime bliss? More like springtime sniffles. And since Germany decides to be as ambivalent as possible in April it's like a mixture of gentle warmth and deadly storms out here. Eh, I guess it's nice though? At least I am having a blast with random ladybugs and cherry blossoms landing in my hair like I am constantly experiencing a magical girl transformation.

Bei Zinnia konnte mir meine wundervolle Liste mit Namen für OCs nicht helfen, tragisch, ich weiß.

---

Zinnia habe ich aus einem meiner Lieblingsbücher, Mathilda. Wir haben nämlich den Film letztens beim Filmabend geguckt und da hatte ich den Namen von Mathildas Mutter noch im Kopf: Zinnia Wormwood.

Und den Namen mochte ich immer, habe mich dran erinnert als ich mir vor meiner Anmeldung überlegt habe, welchen Namen ich nehmen könnte...dann auf gut Glück gegoogelt, ob da rein zufällig eine Bedeutung hintersteckt, die für mich brauchbar ist und das Ergebnis bekommen:

---

"The name Zinnia is a girl's name of German, Latin origin meaning "Zinn's flower". Zinnia is an unusual floral choice with a bit more edge and energy than most and beginning to find its way onto namers' wish lists of botanical possibilities. Named after German botanist called Johann Gottfried Zinn, it appears in Roald Dahl's Matilda as the young protagonist's mother. In the language of flowers, Zinnias symbolize remembrance."

Also ja, gefiel mir, passte von der Bedeutung. Mehr wollte ich nicht. :D und Elina...fand das klingt gut zusammen mit Zinnia. Daran hatte ich dann weniger Ansprüche :D

Do you ever look at the leaves of the trees how they always turn into colours in winter and how some of the leaves are cracked and I always found beauty in the broken and flawed, how all the trees which are very old and lone always sway to the tune of wind as they are always praising god that's what it always makes me feel like and withered flowers pressed in the mud or found in the corner of road and thinking about all these things it makes me realised of us as humans beings and one of the reasons why I love their all little imperfections. We all are authentic albeit messy human beautifully flawed and imperfectly perfect, beings and when you love or care about someone, imperfections are nothing cause you worship and love every piece of them - the good/rough hard parts and curves and edges of them. 🌻
