River Oaks Texas Schools

 

As a society, we tend to send flowers out of feelings of guilt for not being in a place we would normally be. Before the advent of automobiles and airplanes, we wouldn't stray too far from home (except in a few cases), and so we didn't have a need for sending gifts through the mail, or the Internet, or using FTD, or some other wire service. But we are products of our times, and because even nuclear families are so far flung, and because husbands and wives often live and work on different continents from one another, we have this need to send gifts to one anther in lieu of being there. What we're acknowledging is that we usually do what we can to make compromises between how we would like to live and how we would like to be close to one another. It's apparently socially acceptable to be apart like this as long as we can send each other things that remind us of this emotional connection even though there's no physical connection. ROCK ON, BROTHER!!!(Rey V. , Nagoya , Japan)

All comments I have received from your deliveries have been favourable, virtually to the point of ridiculousness. As an example, my Great Aunt back in Sussex (UK) immediately rang me up to "gush" all over the place about it. I mean, they're only flowers. It's incredible how much a few blooms cause people to feel giddy enough to do things like that. Cheers.(James E. , Stamford CT )

I ordered roses from you for her when we first met, I ordered roses from you when we were dating, I ordered roses from you when we got engaged, I ordered roses from you when we got married, I ordered roses from you when we had our first baby, and our second. You've been a part of our lives for many years now, and your presence on the Internet has been a wonderful blessing for our family. God bless.(Horace J. , Jacksonville FL )

Just for the record, my father really likes your plants that I've been sending him. The old codger will never admit it, but he appreciates the way they brighten up his dark, dank three-room cabin in the mountains. He gives me some song and dance about them being "good for the air quality" but I know he just likes them for how they look (kind of like he chose his last two wives... ahem...) Thanks for a great gift a daughter could give a father.(Caroline E. , Lafayette CO )
