Last week, I arrived home from a funeral and decided to pop into my home office to make sure everything was prepared for the return to work day ahead. As I sat down to log-in my laptop, still feeling a bit wobbly from the day I had, I was greeted by the Nintendo Talking Flower toy informing me that “wasn’t life great.”
That was the point where I decided it was time to take its batteries out.
Seems like a cultural issue to me. The flower isn’t wrong. If they attended a celebration of life instead of a funeral, the message would read much differently.
Funerals are already celebrations of life. At least, every one that I have been to has been.
