I flower and bloom giving gifts of my berries. I do not sacrifice myself. My love is infinite, boundless and ever giving, though I am not taken from without my will. My boundaries come from within so deeply embodied that my heart can open freely. These boundaries are not an external structure, they are part of my essence, my being. It is from here that I can love freely without condition. An open heart extended as an invitation for others to once again open theirs. Love is my boundary for it extends to all, including myself. The white represents the purity of my being and the red the richness of my soul and the ripeness of fertile growth. My medicine is one that tears down the walls blocking love in and out for there is no place for this in Gods kingdoms. A wall is not a boundary, it is an obstacle to love. I grow in unseemly places for I am resilient and strong and not to be mistaken by my grace and beauty. A misperception that you cannot be both of these. I am here to show you how to balance these inner parts of self. For the way of the heart is the only way.
