The family had just moved to Rhode Island, and the young woman was feeling sad. After all, it was Mother’s Day and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.

She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy

Mother’s Day. As they talked, the young woman could almost

smell the purple lilacs (丁香) hanging outside her parents’ back door.

Later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he jumped up from his chair. “I know where we can find you all the lilacs you want, he said. “Get the kids and come on.”

So off they went, driving on the country roads of northern Rhode Island. Eventually, he stopped the car.

“Come with me,” he said. “Over that hill is an old cave, and there are lilacs all around it. Go and pick a few.”

The woman wandered among the lilacs. Carefully, she picked some out. She was in no hurry, enjoying each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. Finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. When they were almost home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, “Stop the car. Stop right here!”

In a second, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a

nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. At the top

of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors.

The young woman found an elderly patient sitting in her wheelchair, alone. She handed her some lilacs. The old woman lifted her head and smiled. Then the young woman left. As the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved and held the lilacs tightly.

The mother told her kids that she didn’t know the old woman

but she needed those flowers more than she did.
