Right now,I just feel like screaming!!!my babyjiq gave me a gift..The greatest gift of all.....SAGA SEEDS..
nicely patterned into the name of my Creator..
I wasn't aware of what saga seeds actually meant at the moment he gave me..
When I looked up in the net,I knew what it meant by now....
It's called Lovesick Beans, the red seeds are bright red and never fades in colour... The significance of this red seeds represented the meaning of " I Love You", " I am thinking of you".
"Bead tree grows in South China
It shoots up in the Spring
Many people want to collect their seeds
They are the things arouses lovesickness"
This is a poem written by a famous ancient Chinese poet, Wang Wei; it was passed down generation after generation to the present and is still read by people of today. The Chinese people regard it as a perfect poem.China has lovesick birds, lovesick trees and lovesick beans.
The story goes: there was a young wife in ancient China. She missed her husband who went out for battles. She often cried under the tree in front of her gate; her tears dried up, and blood came out of her eyes. The blood dyed the roots of the tree into red; afterwards, small and red beans began to grow on the tree, and the beans were bead tree.
Bead tree mainly grows in Canton, Guangxi, and Xishuangbanna of Yunnan etc.
