Each
year her husband sent her valentine roses, tied with pretty bows. The note
would always say, "I love you even more than last year on this day. "
The year he
died, the roses were delivered to her door as usual. The card said, "Be my
valentine. My love for you will always grow with every passing year. " She
thought this was the last time that the roses would appear. She guessed he
ordered roses in advance before this day. Her loving husband did not know that
he would pass away. He always liked to do things ahead. Then, if he got too
busy, everything would work out fine. She trimmed the stems, placed them in a
very special vase, and then sat the vase beside the portrait of his smiling
face. She would sit for hours, in her husband's favorite chair, staring at his
picture and the roses.
A year went by, and it was hard to
live without him. Then, on Valentine’s day, the doorbell rang, and there were
roses, sitting by her door. She brought the roses in, and then just looked at
them in shock. Later she called the florist shop(花店) asked them to explain
why valentine roses were sent to her.
The owner answered, "I know
your husband passed away more than a year ago. The flowers you received today
were paid for in advance. Your husband always planned ahead, Here is a standing
order(长期有效的订单) here. As he
has paid in advance, you will get them every year. He also wrote a special
little card for you… He did this years ago. He said , ‘If you find
out that I’m no longer here, the card should be sent to my wife the following
year.’"
She thanked him and
hung up the phone, her tears running down her face. Her fingers shaking, she
slowly reached to get the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written
her a note. Then, as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote:
"Hello my love, I know it's been a year since passed away, I hope it is
not too hard for you to overcome.” "I know it must be lonely, and the pain
is very real. The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life. I loved
you more than words I can say. You were my friend and lover, you fulfilled my
every need. I know it's only been a year, but please try not to grieve. I want
you to be happy, even when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be
sent to you for years. "
"When you get these roses,
think of all the happiness that we had together, and how both of us were
blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will. But, my love, you
must go on, you have some living still. "
"Please. . . try to find
happiness, while living out your days. I know it is not easy, but I hope you
find some ways. The roses will come every year, and they will only stop when
your door's not answered, when the florist stops to knock. "
"He will come five times that
day, in case you have gone out. But after his last visit, he will know without
doubt to take the roses to the place, where I've instructed him, and place the
rose where we are together once again. "
