Snowdrops Leave Winter Behind is a perfect analogy as we see the resilience in the plant. The bulbs grow flowers each year, even after the harshest of Winters.
I’ve always loved Snowdrops; I even had a glass one as a child. To me, their delicate beauty is like ballerinas dancing in the breeze.
Symbolism of Snowdrops
Snowdrops represent the rebirth after the Winter, showing that Spring is on its way. Leaving Winter Behind. For instance, the flower is viewed as a symbol of hope for better times ahead.
A few weeks ago on my morning walk, I noticed the Snowdrops were bursting into flower. They had not long since been submerged in cascading water, as a result, from when the stream burst its banks from the persistent rainfall. Yet there they stood upright, flourishing, with their brilliant-white delicate hoods.
Like the Snowdrops, we have hardy roots inside us.
However, when life throws us a curveball, or feeling the Winter Blues, they can become too submerged and weak to grow through. When you don’t feel balanced, or have belief in yourself. Similarly, you are too anxious, overthinking with negative thoughts. You lack the momentum to break through the soil.
