Between people and plants

Recently, there was a new member of the family - a potted succulent plant, whose scientific name seems to be Guanyin Lian, given by someone else and placed on the living room table.

At first, I didn't pay any attention to this succulent plant, it lived in my house purely because my mother liked it, and it didn't need much care, even sunlight and water probably didn't need it, every day when I came home, I went straight back to my room because, in my impression, it didn't have much to do with me, I neither needed to take care of it, nor did I need to accompany it, but gradually, I began to find that my vision But gradually, I began to find that my vision was unconsciously mixed with a touch of green, and the potted succulent plant slowly attracted my attention.

It was the first time I looked at a plant so carefully. From its appearance, it looked like a fat green lotus, and when I squeezed its "petals", it felt very strong and powerful, so it had an amazing life hidden under its lovely appearance. On closer inspection, I found that next to this succulent plant, there was a very small succulent plant, the shape is simply its (mostly succulent) mini model, from above looking down on this large and small two succulent plants, just like a cute parent-child picture.

Slowly, I began to pay attention to this pot of succulent, a few weeks later, I seem to be evil, talking to it about its affairs, it is like a listener, listening to my troubles and happiness, tears and bitterness, it just quietly listened, silent, even so, I am still a teller, to a "listener" can not speak I am still acting as a teller to a "listener" who can't speak. Although it is silent to my speech, I think it is alive, is spiritual, it can understand what I say, but only silently in the heart to give a response, I believe that the care of this pot of succulent is mutual, you are good to it, it will always be so budding growth, long and never decay.

Sometimes, I store some small stores, will see some beautiful sold decorations in the store, if suitable for that pot of succulent, I will buy it, like a ribbon, I tied a bow on the pot, a few diamond stickers, I stick on its strong "petals" for decoration (stick on the surface of the succulent itself does not affect), and some Other decorations, all in all, it was made beautiful by me, a few more features.

This pot of succulent just living alone in my home, it is not in a place like a plant kingdom with many plants to accompany it, it only has a very small succulent to accompany it, but it is still in loneliness and loneliness insist on blooming themselves if even a small pot of succulent can do so, then how can not people? Always learn to face yourself, face reality, and finally try hard to bloom their light!

Now, between me and it, gradually acquaintance, it has become a good friend that I can talk about, I became a good partner that can let it rely on. But I often wonder how long it has to live, whether it will be like the last orchid I kept at home, the flowers withered after only a week, whether it will be like the goldfish I kept as a child, which also did not live more than a few weeks ...... All this, I do not know, the future is a mystery, perhaps one day, it died (withered) and passed away. And what will I do, cry? or (or) silence? or (or) other it.

The future I do not know, but I know that the relationship between me and that pot of succulent now, the relationship between me and it continues, is the friendship between people and plants, is my friendship with it.
