the peace of lilac

Breathing in lilac is like being washed clean.
Any feelings of negativity or weight that I carry melts away, brushed off by the breeze. What is left is peace and clarity.
Years ago people believed that their was a secret language to flowers, that each one meant something. Then science was discovered and such ideas were discarded as mysticism and superstition. Now, through essential oils, homeopathy, and other means we see the magic of flowers. 
People say that lavender is good for headaches but lilacs do well for mine. I love the smell of hyacinths too. Perhaps it's the color that cures as much as the smell—lilac, lavender, hyacinth. I bet bees do a dance of joy whenever they come across one of these beauties.
