A Red Rose

A man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away. As he got out of his car he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars."

The man smiled and said, "Come on in with me. I'll buy you a rose." He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother's flowers. As they were leaving he offered the girl a ride home. She said, "Yes, please! You can take me to my mother." She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.

The man returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother's house.

Moral: Don't Send Artificial Loves to your parents. Give them the respect and courtesy they desire. They are your most precious Treasure, Care for them. God Forbid, if they leave this world then one can do nothing but regret.



The cost of gift doesnt matters if they are given with love because there is nothing more precious than love in this world...

so instead of showing artificial love for anyone dont show that u love them or like them.



Regards,

Sonal

An eye opening message Sonal.
We crave a lot for artificial things and forget about the happiness brought by true love, affection and warmness. Its the fragrance of hand that gives a rose is more important than the rose itself. Say it with flowers but more than that say it with heart.
Thank you so much Sonal for sharing such wonderful stories.
