I just read this beautiful story and thought to share this with you. We are so busy growing up that we often neglect our parents. This post is dedicated to the love of parents with a hope that the message would help you live in a better way with all your beloveds together.A man stopped his car at a flower shop to order some flowers to be sent to his mother through courier, who lived two hundred miles away in another small town.
As he got out of his car he noticed a little girl sitting outside the shop sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have few coins and a rose costs 10 rupees".
The man smiled and said, "Come on in with me. I shall buy you a rose." He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother’s flowers at the shop.
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 quietly stepped out of the car giving her honest thanks to the kind man.
As the car stood there, she went inside and placed the rose on a freshly dug grave and just sat there looking at it with love.
Starting his car again, the man returned to the flower shop, cancelled his Courier order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother’s house, to meet her in person.
Because he suddenly realized the importance of time to do the right things in life…………….before it gets too late.
