A white dove can have different meanings to different people. When you see one it might symbolized freedom. They can walk on the earth and swim in the sea as humans. Many cultures believe that they are a symbol of eternal life; the link between heaven and earth. It can be a religious symbol too. The Dove is generally thought to be a symbol of peace. It is also symbolic of love. A pair of doves is believed to be a symbol of love and fidelity. Im sure we all have seen this, a pair of Doves are often released by couples on their wedding day as a symbol of purity and to signify the beginning of their new life together. They also do it in funeral.
Seeing a dove does remind me of it being the symbol for peace. Maybe I'll have a couple released at my wedding. Good thought and post! Thank you.
