The Best Flower in the Garden

As summer came to an end, all of the flowers in the garden wanted to know which flower was the best:

The pink roses said, "We are the best because we were the first flowers to bloom in the spring."

The white daisies said, "Oh no, we are the best because we have pretty flowers all summer long."

The big yellow mums said, "Don't be silly, we are the best because we are the last flowers to bloom in the autumn."

Each flower argued that they were the best. But when people came to see the garden, they stopped. All the flowers were quiet and looked very proud so people would say that they were the best.

One day the gardener came into the garden. The pink roses fluffed their petals so that they would look best. All of the white daisies stood up tall so they would look the best. The yellow mums beamed in the sunlight so that they would look the best. All the flowers were sure that the gardener would say they were the best. But the gardener only smiled and said, "Look at all of my pretty flowers!"

The gardener took a basket and began to put the pink roses into it. The roses were sure they were special because they were picked first. But the daisies just laughed at the roses, "Ha-ha! You are not pretty enough to stay in the garden."

Next, the gardener put some daisies in the basket and the mums began to laugh, "Told you! We are the best because we are the only flowers left in the garden."

Finally, the gardener put the mums into the basket. Again, all the flowers began to fight over who was the best.

When the gardener got to the house, he began to put all of the beautiful flowers into a vase. First, he put the pink roses into the vase, remembering that they were the first flowers to bloom in the spring. Next, he put the yellow daisies into the vase and thought how wonderful to see them every day when he walked in the garden. Finally, he put the mums into the vase; he was very excited to finally see the autumn flowers. He had been waiting all summer to see them.

The gardener put the vase on the table and said, "I have the prettiest bouquet of flowers. Alone each flower is the best, but together they look perfect!"

Suddenly the flowers realized that all along each one was the best that they could be. But it wasn't until the gardener made a bouquet of all of the flowers together that they became something special. At last, all the flowers were happy.

Rose for Mother

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: Life is Short.  Spend much time as you can loving and caring people who love you.  Enjoy each moment with them before it’s too late.  There is nothing important than family.

A FLOWER STORY

Once, in the early spring, two seeds were dropped not far from a river. One grew into a daisy, with soft white petals and a sunny yellow middle. The other grew into a rose, sweet and graceful, with petals the color of a summer sunset. They grew together and were the best of friends.

   One summer day, the rose said to the daisy, "I would like to see the world. I want to travel to faraway places, and see what it's like where other flowers grow."
   "Why would you want to do that?" the Daisy asked. "I like it right here by our river. It's beautiful and peaceful, just the right place for two flowers."   "I suppose you're right", the rose sighed. "Besides, I couldn't leave you." And the two friends promised that they would never leave their place on the river bank.
   But the very next day, a child was walking down to the river and spied the rose's pink petals. "Oh, what a lovely flower", she said. "I'll take it home and give it to mother." And she walked over and plucked the rose right out of the ground.
   The daisy watched as her friend was taken away, unable to do anything to help. And she wept. Very few have ever heard a flower cry, and those who have say that there is no sound in the world sadder.

   The child brought the flower home, where it was loud and busy and not at all fit for a little rose. The mother put the rose in a vase, and after a few days, that pretty little rose wilted, as flowers who have been taken from the ground do.

   The daisy knew it was impossible that her friend would ever come back, but that didn't stop her from hoping. And there she sat, waiting and weeping all through summer, and right on into the fall. And that little flower waited right up until winter, when, exhausted and cold, she curled up and wilted. The daisy and the rose were reunited at last.
   And so, I beg you, if you see two flowers growing sweetly together, do not pick one and put it in a vase on your table, but leave it there. Because, even for flowers, life is better when you have someone by your side.

The Girl Who Loved Roses

Many beautiful flowers grew in the park. There were lilies, carnations, violets, tulips, and many more besides. The colors were amazing to look at, and the smell of the flowers was very soothing.

Maya’s favorite flowers were roses; she loved the red ones, the yellow ones, the pink ones, the orange ones, and the white ones. Every day she would go to the park and pick a rose of each color, then she would take them to her mother’s grave at the bottom of the park. Maya’s mother had died two years ago after becoming very ill, and the young girl had promised herself that she would visit the grave every day so that her mother would never be forgotten.

One day, while Maya was picking roses in the park, she saw a boy sitting on the grass wearing a school uniform. He had a yellow rose in his hand, and he was tearing all of the petals from the rose, one by one. Maya ran over to the boy and shouted at him.

‘Why are you tearing the petals off of that beautiful flower? Why are you doing that?’

‘Because I am bored,’ replied the boy. ‘Why are you getting so upset about it?’

Maya could feel the tears welling up in her eyes as she said to the boy: ‘I am upset because I love roses, and my mother loves roses. I pick some for her every day, and if you tear them all there will be none left!’

The young boy felt sorry for Maya and asked: ‘Where is your mother?’

Maya pointed silently towards her mother’s grave at the bottom of the park. She sat down on the grass clutching her roses and asked the boy for his name. He told her that his name was Sami and that he had run away from school because he was finding mathematics class too hard.

Sami learned that he never saw Maya at school because her father was too poor and so could not afford to send her. The young girl told Sami that she often wondered what it would be like to go to school and have friends to play with.

Sami asked: ‘Do you like maths? I don’t like maths and I can never understand how to do it.’
