Plants vs. Virus

As the pandemic began, my mom started to buy a lot of plants it’s like every week there is a delivery of new plants for us. At first I could not understand why because for me at that time plants were just a nuisance. I asked mom why does she keep buying lots of plants she said it helps with stress but I thought that it is just a lame reason to justify her hobby. I can recall my father asking my little brother where my mom was, then he answered” nasa taas nagmamine”, we burst in laughter upon hearing his words because he was able to use a pronoun as a verb.  

One day as I was browsing the internet, I come to read an article “10 Benefits of Houseplants in the Home”. I was surprised to know that plants can really do the following:

1. Plants reduce stress – being able to see the greenery of plants around you has calming effect.

2. Plants in the home can fend off a blocked nose – having plants around your living space can help lessen your chance of catching colds and having a stuffy nose.

3. Plants have air-cleaning qualities around the home –not only collect dust particles, but they also break down harmful substances in the atmosphere.

4. Plants ensure a good night’s sleep – creating a better air climate in your bedroom and generate more oxygen.

5. Plants can help improve your mood – providing positive energy and an augmented sense of happiness.

Remembering the game, Plants vs. Zombies plants had defense against the zombies likewise on how they combat the negative effects of the pandemic by keeping us mentally and physically strong. Now I appreciate my mom’s love for tropical aroids like philodendrons, alocasias, epipremnum and monsteras.  While my brother prefers carnivorous plants like droseras, nepenthes, and dionaea muscipula.

 As for me, I am happy helping them tender their beloved plants knowing that by taking care of our plants can help us win our new game, Plants vs. Virus.

Menyambung Rezeki

Adalah benar pada rezeki yang kita terima, boleh jadi akan jadi rezeki yang Allah titipkan untuk orang lain.

Seberapa sering kamu ketika dalam perjalanan, Allah menggerakkan hatimu untuk mampir sebentar hanya untuk membeli minuman atau sekadar camilan? Boleh jadi si pemilik warung yang sepanjang hari kepanasan, sangat mengharapkan dagangannya laris hari ini. Untuk menambah biaya sekolah anaknya. Secara tidak langsung dirimu telah menyambung rezeki untuknya.

Suatu ketika, saya iseng mampir ke sebuah kios tanaman di pinggir jalan. Yang sebelum masa #plantdemic tidak pernah terpikirkan saya akan menyambangi tempat itu. Karena memang tidak terlalu antusias dengan tanaman. Itu dulu.

Pada hari itu saya ingin coba pengalaman baru, gimana sih rasanya membeli tanaman langsung? Apalagi kalau lihat di story-story medsos, kios tanaman ini sudah seperti menjadi 'mall' baru untuk banyak orang. Jadi lebih sering ramai.

Sayangnya kios yang saya datangi bisa dikatakan sepi pengunjung. Mulailah saya keliling dari jajaran polybag satu ke yang lainnya. Melihat-lihat jenis-jenis tanaman, yang memang kalau diperhatikan kurang terurus. Mungkin itu jadi faktor kenapa sepi.

Singkat cerita, saya memutuskan mengadopsi dua jenis tanaman saat itu. Dengan kocek hanya 15ribu rupiah. Mungkin bagi saya itu sekadar 'hanya' tapi bagi pemilik kios bisa lebih dari sekadar kata itu. Terlihat dari sumringahnya dan berkali-kali berucap alhamdulillah.
