The greatest gift and blessing that we received from God is the gift of Life. We should be thankful for the many gifts that we receive everyday. Out of the many gifts, being able to wake up every single day is the one that we should cherish the most. A very close friend of mine will be celebrating their Father's death anniversary tomorrow and she is already busy preparing the things and food that they will be bringing in the cemetery. Since she is the eldest among the siblings, she has to take care of everything for the commemoration of their Father's death anniversary. I accompanied her to the market today , to help out in buying ingredients for the meals that they will be bringing.
After more than an hour at the market, we bought everything that she needs. I originally wanted to help in cooking, but my husband and I, together with our son, had to go somewhere very important. On our way home, we pass by a flower shop and I got interested in one of their flower arrangement. We stop by to buy the flowers that is beautifully arranged in a clear glass vase. At first glance, I really thought that the roses and white lily arrangement is a natural plant. But my eyes totally deceived me, they are actually silk flowers. We will be bringing these pink rose and lily devotion silk arrangement at the cemetery tomorrow. Good thing about silk flower arrangements, is that they do not wither and die, unlike the cut natural flowers. They are maintenance free too, since you don't have to water them everyday or trim and fertilize the plant just like the natural plants need in order to grow and survive.
Life is really unpredictable, we can't tell until when are we gonna stay in this world. We should know how to make each moment count. Also be sure to spread good deeds and happiness because it will definitely be recognized by many even at your death anniversary.
