Happy Mother’s Day

It’s Mother’s Day today & I would like to wish all mothers out there especially my mum, Happy Mother’s Day !! On this special day, I would like to share a story which I’ve read from the internet recently that really touches my heart.

.

A man drove to a florist shop to order a bouquet for his mother who lives 200 km away. he planned to deliver it by courier service for he was too busy to celebrate her birthday with her.

.

As he got out of the car, he saw a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. “Why are you crying my dear?” he asked. “I need to buy a red rose for my mother…but it cost two dollars. I only have seventy cents!” “Come to shop with me, I would like to buy my mother some flowers, too”

.

He bought the little girl her red rose and ordered his own flower for her mother’s birthday. “Please send this flower to my mum by tomorrow morning, it’s her birthday!” “Come on my dear. I’ll give you a ride home,” said the man.

.

”Please drop me here, Sir. My mom had just moved over here a few days ago !” said the little girl. The little girl laid the red rose gently on the grave of her beloved mother. The man quickly cancelled the mail delivery of his mother’s bouquet. Instead, he drove 200 km to his mother’s house.

.

Live not a life that will cause us to regret……when it comes to a time that we need to leave everyone and everything behind. Appreciate your loved ones before it’s too late.

.

Mum
