FLOWERS... its amazing how such a simple scent, or an amazing color sitting in the middle of your table can provoke so many emotions, so many feelings towards another person or a memory. I have no doubt that the flower business is booming, with weddings, funerals, and day to day special things that are going on, especially with our 6 billion people on the planet right. But why not for nothing? Just for out of the blue... just to remind someone of how special they are, and how precious the time that they share is together. I think if more people just did a little bit more of that a divorce rate of 1 out of 2 could easily progress to say 1 out of 4... those are still pretty horrible odds, but think of it, just for flowers. They can be fancy ones, or plain jane. Ones you pick yourself on the side of the road on the way home, or bought from someone on the street. Just take an extra minute once in a while to get someone flowers.
