CC3-flowers dont talk

Flowers are amazing. They are beautiful. They can cure and they can be eaten. but They dont talk, just stand there quietly. I started to raise flower several years ago. It was just the time that I was suffering from career difficulties and have been frustrated and upset for a while.

One day I went to the Futian flower market. It was spring, I saw hundreds and thousands of flowers in full blossom. Lots of beautiful nameless flowers were put on the ground outside the stores. People among the flowers are chatting and laughing. I can feel the magic of the nature. It’s the spirit of growing and flourishing. The vivid scene touched me. I loved them at once. I brought some home and Start my flower raising life.

Not so long I found more interesting flowers through internet. A whole new world was opened in front of me. I am so excited that I try to gather all kinds of flowers as many as possible. The maximum number of flowers in my home is hundreds. It seems like I am crazy about flowers. Yes, I am. Its all because I found something in it.

Flowers don’t talk, but they tell us we need to understand others first. When I just start growing plants, I put succulent and cactus on the computer desk in my office, because they are cute and could absorb radiation. Soon afterwards I found the succulent become tall like a needle and the cactus rotted from inside.  Actually Those plants they come from dessert. They need full time sunshine.  they need direct sunlight over 8 hours, but I put them in a place without direct sunshine. We get used to think about things from our own perspective. but if we want to do the right thing, we need to put  ourselves in others' shoes.

Flowers don’t talk, but they have their own language. They cannot tell us immediately, they are slow tellers. If you fertilized too much, they would die the second day. if you watered too much, their would die in a month. Even when you do everything right, they will not bloom tomorrow. They need time to grow and we need patience to let nature to do the rest. Sometimes we have done everything we could, but things still don’t go well. Don’t be anxious  ,hang on for a while,  let time to do the rest.

Flowers  are not just flowers. They can be a brige connect people who has the same interest. Through them I made friends. Man and women, engineers and housewives. We exchange opinions of growing flowers and share seedlings from one another. We visit other’s garden together and have dinner together.The days with flowers are full of hope and colorful. The tough time isn’t though any more.

Every time backing home, I will go to the balcony to see my flowers and plants first. To check if there is something new, a little bit growth of lily or a tender shoot coming from the soil is the best bonus of my hard work. Flowers don’t talk but they teach me a lot.

Finally, I want to say to you all, If you worried a lot, I suggest you raising flowers. Start from one little potted plant. Take good care of it and feel it. The magic will happen to you .
