I really think that I have to share this. Last Sunday, May 10 2026, a little girl dropped a rose infront of my door. I knew cause I saw her through my door cam. I dont know her. I saw she was with her mother who stood slightly away but instructing her to leave the rose by the door.
I really appreciate people like them. People who may not have much financially but still made an effort to make a senior happy on occasions like this. They know that I live alone. Since I moved in to this apartment building in 2018, I really did not get much visitors. Nobody seems to care for me. Nobody seems interested checking in on me
That rose still stands in a mug wit water in my dining room table, slightly withered but it makes me smile everytime I looked at it. At my age, I dont ask for anything more, just simple things, just like this rose.
I have 3 daughters, I have family. But they have their own lives now. They cant spare an hour to visit me. They cant spare 30 minutes to call me, talk to me, see how Im doing, ask if I needed anything.
So you see, I am not really alone. Just abandoned by the very people that I devoted my whole life.
Belated Happy Mother's Day to all.
