Do Plants Have a Sixth Sense for Life Choices?
Let’s be honest, we’ve all been there. You’re going about your day, maybe in your pajamas at 2 p.m. on a Tuesday (no judgment, we’ve all had those days), when you catch it. That sideways glance from your leafy roommate, the one you swore you watered last week (or was it the week before?). It’s subtle, this judgment, hidden behind a curtain of vibrant green leaves, but it’s there. And it got me thinking: are our plants silently judging our life choices?
Was Ferdinand’s melancholy a reflection of my own internal state? Was he judging my descent into chaos? I repotted him with a renewed sense of purpose, vowing to get my own life in order. Coincidence? Perhaps. But the new growth that sprouted a week later felt suspiciously like a silent nod of approval from my leafy friend.
Exhibit B: The Succulent Side-Eye and Questionable Choices
Then there’s Susan, my stoic succulent. Susan is a low-maintenance gal, content with a splash of water every other week and a sunny windowsill. But lately, I’ve noticed a certain…side-eye whenever I reach for that second glass of wine after a long day. It’s like she’s judging my coping mechanisms, silently advocating for a calming cup of herbal tea instead.
