A man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to 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 flower. 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, cancelled the wire order, pick up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother's house. He was glad to have meet the girl.
