I’ve seen this several times, and each time I read it, I wonder: So what can we do about it? It’s not that we don’t want to stop and appreciate beautiful things.
Most of us are slaves to a time clock that won’t let us change our schedules to appreciate beautiful things. We did this to ourselves when we voted for a government to force us to maintain a standard of living, educate our children, and pay taxes to keep an army and provide other services. We have to pay penalties for not doing so, sometimes heavy ones, like going to jail. Notice how much emphasis was put on parents who wouldn’t let their children stop and listen. In their defense, parents of young children are the most put-upon people in the US. Not old enough to have enough money to retire, they are strapped trying to meet all the requirements put on them by the educational system, laws concerning safety and proper care for children, their jobs (so they can pay the bills these demands garner), and all the variables that weather, sickness and life with minor-age children brings with it. Do you realize how many laws concerning young children govern the lives of parents? Yes, it’s not without a good reason that all a parent thinks about is getting from point A to point B without having a breakdown physically, emotionally, mentally or vehically… If you stop long enough to dream, you realize how much you are missing and that could contribute to a total crash of your house of cards…
When our society learns to survive without punching a clock, then we’ll have time for beauty. We could live like people in third world countries. They enjoy beauty – read any writings by missionaries to those countries. In places like Mexico, Bolivia and other poor South American countries, the men take jobs long enough to earn a few weeks pay, then go home for awhile when they get tired. American employers complain of their work ethic, and have no legal recourse when the men do them that way, but they still build their factories in those places because labor is so cheap.
Sad, isn’t it? Yes, to stop and smell the roses generally means you’re too poor to do anything else.

I think he was talking about jayb3ta, not the parable.

Another perspective : a gift which was simply unfitting for the still living, baby?

I disagree because the for sale part means that the baby died during childbirth. that is why they were never worn.
