A lesson (or a joke?)
When his elderly friend became ill, a nice guy began to make a soup that his old friend liked. He made it every morning, and took it to his friend, who downed it with great pleasure.
This went on for a couple of years. Every day, the soup was made and taken to his friend, who loved the taste. But, one day, the old man died.
The soup maker made a batch of soup and took it to the funeral parlor, where his friend was in a beautiful coffin, surrounded by lots and lots of fresh flowers. He put the soup down near the coffin.
One of the relatives came up, laughing at him, and said. "Why did you bring that soup? He is dead and cannot taste it." The soup-maker said.."Yes, and he also can't smell your beautiful flowers."
