He Gives Flower To Stranger. Seconds Later, She Bawls And Tells Story That Sends Chills Down His Spine.

Danny Wakefield had a crush on a girl and decided to express his affections by placing a flower on her windshield. So he picked up a single sunflower and was on his way.

Before he had a chance to place it on her car, he decided that he was coming on a little too strong and changed his mind. Rather than waste the beautiful flower Danny wanted to give it to a stranger to brighten their day.

He stopped in his favorite coffee shop to pick up his regular order, but rather than take it to-go, Danny decided to sit down and sip his drink. That is when he noticed a woman carefully reading something at another table with tears rolling down her face.

It was obvious to him that this would be the perfect opportunity to give away the flower he still had on hand.

“It was like there was a magnet in the sunflower that was being drawn to her, because I knew in that moment she was who I was going to give the sunflower to; she was who I had to give it to,” Danny said.

So he approached the woman and said, “Pardon me, I have this sunflower that I was hoping to give to someone special and that someone I had in mind didn’t work out, but I can feel that you’re special too, so I want you to have it.”

Before Danny had the chance to hand her the flower, the woman sprung out of her seat and wrapped her arms around him bursting into a full-blown cry. She finally managed to share with Danny why she was so upset and why his gesture meant so much to her.

In fact, the woman’s fiancé who she was supposed to marry within months had passed away the week before. She shared that on their first date, he had given her a sunflower just like the one Danny offered her.

Since their first date, sunflowers became their thing and he always gave them to her “because she was the light of his life.” She continued to explain that Danny’s gesture felt like a message from her fiancé that she will always be the light of his life.

In his post on Facebook Danny wrote, “I’m shaken, awaken and feeling raw. You never know how much a simple gesture of giving someone a $5 flower will change their life, as well as yours.

“Life is about giving and being of service to others.”

He then challenges those reading to take on the #sunflowerchallenge to give a flower to someone they don’t know.

“Find a way to make someone else’s life just a little bit brighter today and be of service. You never know the impact you could have.”

Danny’s story is so uplifting and an amazing reminder to be a light in this world. God had Danny in that coffee shop at that moment to comfort that young woman who truly needed love.

We should all take on the #sunflowerchallenge and pass on that love that people all around us need every single day!
