But Danny Wakefield never would have imagined that a complete stranger would find solace in his simple gesture.
As Wakefield explains on his Facebook post, he decided to go on a walk with a sunflower in his hand. Rather than throwing it away, Wakefield wanted to make use out of this $5 sunflower. He thought that he could just give it to a stranger that he meets on the road – and why not? Such kind gesture would cheer anyone up!

Wakefield was, of course, shocked when he heard her story.
As he writes on his post, “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. I challenge you all to 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.”
