My mother loves flowers. As soon as warm weather comes around,you will find her planting,watering and weeding over everything. For many years we lived next door to each other,and she spent as much time in my garden as she did her own. After the flowers became plentiful each summer,she would cut colourful bouquets (花束) to enjoy inside the house―both hers and mine. I would often come home from work and find a beautiful arrangement (布置) of fresh flowers on my coffee table.
Shortly before Christmas one year,a local flower shop offered a bouquet-a-month special. It seemed to be a great way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me through the years.
After the holidays,in early January,I drove her to the flower shop to pick up her first month's bouquet. The small fresh colourful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase (花瓶) .
I was so embarrassed. However,after wc returned home,she began to arrange the flowers she had received. "Mum,I'm sorry,"I told her. "I can't be?lieve how skimpy that bouquet is. " She looked at me and smiled. "It s okay," she said. "It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one.” Mum's words helped me realize something bigger and more important— when we have too many good things,we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.
Thanks,Mum,for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.
