A tender gesture probably nobody else had noticed. \"I don't want to say this the wrong way, Shah-loh, but we're all gonna die.\" \"Of course we are.\" A drop of water fell from the end of the snapdragon stem. \"But I prefer not to kill my flowers before their time.\" \"Well, cut er not cut, we're all goin'.\" Becky spoke so soberly that I turned my eyes to her. \"Ain't no stoppin' it. You know that.\" \"Sure I do, but isn't it a waste? All that beautiful bloom for what-an hour?\" \"Mebbe in some ways, but...\" She gathered a handful of roses and freesia, delicately perfumed, and pressed them in my hands. \"Ya gotta remember though-this was their purpose all along. And they did it to their fullest. It's their gift.\" I felt strangely moved, standing there with shoppers laughing in the background. And me looking down at those beautiful doomed flowers in my hands, their glowing colors trembling with drops. \"But it's such a waste, Becky!\" \"Or a sacrifice. Depends on how ya look at it. They lived and bloomed, jest like they were made to do. And when it was time to go, they gracefully said yes.\" She ran her hands over the petals, which gleamed like bits of satin. \"We're seein' their last magnificent moments and enjoyin' 'em. If you was a flower, wouldn't that make ya happy to know you'd done what you was born ta do? Even if ya didn't get to do it very long?”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jennifer Rogers Spinola" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jennifer-rogers-spinola/becky-fell-unusually-quiet-as-she-smoothed-macy-s-overalls-that-had/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/54e/jennifer-rogers-spinola-71806_flowers_becky-fell-unusually-quiet-as-she-smooth_193728.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/54e/jennifer-rogers-spinola-71806_flowers_becky-fell-unusually-quiet-as-she-smooth_193728.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/54e/jennifer-rogers-spinola-71806_flowers_becky-fell-unusually-quiet-as-she-smooth_193728.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Becky fell unusually quiet as she smoothed Macy's overalls that had scrunched under her legs.
