About one month ago, my friend moved his new office. One day he invited me to have a seat in his company. I wondered which gifts sent to him. Nothing too expensive but delicate and prosperious in meaning for the openning of his new company. This puzzeled me a lot. Suddendly, when I took a walk around our office building after lunch, I found there was a newly-established gardening store. I immediately got the idea sending him a pot of plant with special and positive meaning. Finnally I chose the "Lucky Bamboo" with three layers. Firstly I was ready to get the cactus to protect from radiation, but so much thorn turned out to be not appropriate on that occasion. When I arrived at his office holding the pot of plant, he expressed his appreciation and told me that he really loved such kind of plant. He put the plant on the office table. I am sure it was a good memory to him for long-term friendship.
The next day, he left messages on my QQ that he watered the plant and would remember to plant in later days for keeping grow well. I said to him that I felt so pleased to hear he prefered and sent another one next time.
This noon, after having lunch with my colleague, I suggest to walk around our office building for digestion. Then I decided to visit the gardening store again to check whether new plants were on show. At the first sight, I chose a plant called "Fortune Tree". Actually, what attracted me initially was not the nice name with special appeance. I had a lot of imagination from it, so I was sure it would offer me inspration in later days. Without any doubt, I bought it eventually. The plant has a very thick body about 8cm in length with dense leaves on top of its trunk. From my vision, it quite looks like an eldly enjoying his abundant rest of life with offsprins and generations surrounding him. It's a happy and enjoyable picture.
Gardening is not just taking care of the plants, but to cultivate our temper and mood. It's really the nice interpretaion of our life in the process. "Fortune Tree", hope to grow with you prosperiously.
