Blossom depicts a hopeful summer when nature is filled with colors. We keep working on ourselves in a silent process and here comes the season when all those toil and hard work will pay off. Our pain gets numb. We no longer remember the struggle but we do carry the lessons which will guide us to bloom again in the coming season.
