Unfortunately Iβm posting this for a negative reason, and for those who know me, know Iβm generally a positive person! So I really donβt like having a downer post but I think itβs probably worth mentioning.
Thursday morning (before our business was open), we had some flowers delivered and left in a safe and discrete place for me to collect once I arrived. Unfortunately when I did arrive, I found that our flowers had been stolen!
It was a full bucket of gerberas (similar to the photo), which means either someone was carrying around a big bucket or gerberas or they had a car to take them in.
It does puzzle us in why someone would take such a large amount of flowers, what would they do with that amount?
Even though it has much value for myself in my business, it has minimal value to the everyday person.
Being a small business, these flowers are our way of living. They supply our customers with ways of expressing care, love, support, joy, these flowers also support my employees, paying their wages and giving them employment and it also supports other businesses by us purchasing off other small local businesses.
Itβs sad when some people do not see the true value of what they chose to take. Some of these flowers were also to be used for funeral flowers.
So to whoever did take these flowers, I hope truly that what you took was used to bring others some joy. Gerberas are what we call the happy flowers, so I hope you shared them with people who really did need some happiness in their life.
