Back when I lived across from this woman’s balcony, I’d always peek at her plants. She had everything—tomatoes, basil, even sunflowers. It was wild how much joy those little green patches brought her. I started copying her, just with a couple of pots at first. Turns out, watering plants in the morning feels like a mini celebration. I’d talk to my basil, and somehow it grew better. Maybe it’s the attention, maybe it’s the sun, but it worked. Now, my windowsill is packed with herbs and flowers. I even share cuttings with neighbors. Growing things taught me patience and gave me a reason to slow down. If you’re thinking about it, just start with one plant. You’ll be surprised how much happiness it brings. #gardeningjoy #plantlife #urbanjungle #growyourown #Gardening
