Forget-me-not

Legend has it in medieval times, there was a victorious knight returning from battle, riding to meet the love of his life, the princess. They met by the banks of a river. The knight upon seeing some pretty blue flowers growing along the river bank, stepped down to pick a posy for his bride to be. But the bank was slippy and the knight fell into the river, and under the weight of his armour he began to drown. His last dying action was to throw the posy of flowers to his helpless lover, shouting the words, “forget me not”.

Should we let the heavy burdens of life weigh us down, then we will drown under the weight of them and lose the love of our life.
