The Last Fallen Flower



I did something make myself happy this morning. It makes me think of a video I watched yesterday. The last words from a person who is going to pass away are usually from their very sincere heart. Sometimes, human tends to be too focus on what they really like to do at the moment and may have overlook something important to them now. This may bring them regret when the moment they realize "it's too late now". We couldn't have our time turning backward.

It seems to link to a story of a King who always think of 3 unsolved questions, that is, What is important now? Who is the important person and when is the right time? There was once the King pretended as a normal citizen and stayed overnight at an old men's place. There was an injured man knocking the door in the middle of night and asked for help because there were soldiers chasing after him. The old man allowed him to hide in his place. The injured man was safe that night and ran off after showing his appreciation towards the old man.

The King was curious and asked the old man in the next morning. He could have risk his life by helping the injured man. The old man answered him:"The most important thing now is to help the injured man. The most important person is the injured man in need. The right time to help is NOW!" The old man's answer seemed to solve his long unsolved questions.

Sometimes, It's not too late to appreciate what we still have in front of us. I understand sometimes things need time to be for sure. It's not good to keep wondering until it has become too late for us either. What matter most is NOW! Don't you think so? I hope to hear some good news soon. :D
