Self-Expression – Voices 64

I have a bunch in my house. I started with succulents because those are almost impossible to kill.

I definitely don’t have a natural green thumb. I’ve killed my fair share of plants.

I’ve even killed a cactus before. I’m getting a lot better now. I have about 12 plants in my house and they are all alive and doing well.

I just have to remember to water them. I also talk to my plants. I like to think it helps them grow.

I feel like I’m bonding with them. I give them names too.

I love having plants in my house. They clean the air and make my house look nice and lively. It makes me so happy to see all the life in my house.

Tending to plants or even just looking at them helps me clear my mind. It’s a great stress reliever.

Next spring, I want to start planting a garden in my backyard. I’m really excited for it. I want to plant a bunch of veggies and fruits that I can eat in the summer.

It would be so amazing to have fresh produce right outside my house. It would save me money, be good for the environment, and be a good outlet for me after my stressful days at work.

I’m trying to live more sustainably and I think gardening could help. Eventually, I really want to get into urban farming. That way I’d get to spend more time gardening and working with plants.

Plus, I’d be able to grow all my own food and be self-sufficient. I’m a long way away from there, but it’s a nice goal to have.
