Bleeding Heart - A symbol of Undying Love




Bleeding Heart can be :
•A term, usually critcal and politically loaded, for someone who is held to be overly sympathetic to another person's (or group of people's) plight
•Someone who is emotionally concerned about a person, idea, or event but still refuses to act
•A common name of plant of the genue Dicentra, which have heart-shaped flowers

Just words, MUMs? No too cold.
Words with symbol? Better.
What symbol?
Butterfly? Beautiful. Liberation. Also can but it's meaning more to the child who has liberated..This is about the mums who are left behind...
Dragonfly? For strength, hope. Can but..anymore?
Hearts? Love. Yeah but what else?
Hands. OneNess. Linking. Aiyah, too common.
Women forming a circle. Uhh...
Flower. Yeah I like it! Its softer, feminine.
What type of flower?
Rose. Aiyah for lovers la!

We went through all these with numerous visuals and discussions, and after much thought I decided Bleeding Heart.
