Flowers for No Reason
By Steven D. Mikel • January 5, 2023
How many of us "martians" see a gift of flowers for our wives as primarily a part of a sincere apology or as something for special occasions like Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Anniversaries or her birthdays?
Here's a thought: Flowers for no reason other than "I was thinking of you."
Most grocery stores have small bouquets for reasonable cost, especially if you have something at home to use a vase. Swing by and pick up some flowers and bring them home just to say "she is on your mind."
Why This Works
- It's unexpected - which makes it more meaningful
- It shows you think of her even when you "don't have to"
- It breaks the routine and adds joy to an ordinary day
- It communicates that she's worth the effort
The cost doesn't matter. The thought does. A $10 bouquet from the grocery store, brought home on a random Tuesday, speaks louder than an expensive arrangement on Valentine's Day when everyone expects flowers.
Try it this week. No reason needed.
