A man stopped at the florist to order a bouquet of bunch flowers to be delivered to his mother who lived 250 KM from him. Once out from his car, he saw a little girl standing on the pavement as she sobbed. He asked why she’s crying. The little girl replied, “I want to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have 5 dollars, while it’s ten dollars.”

He smiled and said, “Come with me, I’ll buy you flowers you want.” Then he bought her a rose, as well as ordering a bouquet to send to his mother.

When finished and about go home, he offered to take the little girl home. The little girl was rejoicing. She said, “Yes, of Course. But would you like to take me to my mother’s place?”

Then the two of them go to the place that designated by little girl, the public cemetery. Arriving there the little girl is laying her flower on a grave which still wet. 


Seeing that, the man’s heart be touched and thought of something. He hurried back to the florist earlier and cancels his delivery. He took the wreath that had been ordered and driving his car to the 250 KM his mother’s place.
