...photosynthesis

I love this idea of two people married and life together in their young age. On mid-20, perhaps.

They share everything they could to share. Or even they have nothing to share.

Touch the waves and fight the storms that might sink their ship of joy and happiness.

Grow up together like two little soybean-seeds on a pot. Stand on their own roots, while face the same light. Hold up with different stem in a same soil. Side by side, their leaves rise and hold each other. And then we know, as the stem is going strong day by day, their roots meet underground, spinning around. Stronger each other, share water and food they made to grow. Until the day when they are bearing new bean... how lovely, thought.

But for this two young people, life runs not that easy.

They’ve to meet these rules: build a house, have a or some cute and smart kids, blablabla...  or being a great gentleman and lady, good parents, kind of things. But, they choose this way: to do not care about it all.

Starting their life in a little house they rented for a year. And will be continue until they save enough money to buy or build up their own home: a little one too. Or, at least for the down payment. They’re not any wealthy descendants, anyway. Then again, they choose this way: to do not care about it all.

Their roots meet underground, spinning around, stronger each other, share water, hold up their stems, and face the same sun.

I don’t know. These things just poped-up in my mind this morning, while taking bath. Thought, i was thinking too much about photosynthesis and Momo’s text about her planting experiment. Such a good phrase to open a... teenlit. Then i’ll add this:

I met him on.... blablabla.

Then we married... blablablabla.

Then i have a son when i was..... blabla...

Oke, not a teenlit anymore.

About the photosynthesis, anyway. I am still amazed with this process. I am amazed on the way a plant life. Wondering, how small-little leaves could make a lot of foods: then the stem going bigger, the roots stay stronger, ripe the fruits, arose the flowers...

Leaves make sugar, the food, from carbon-dioxide. Man, carbon-dioxide. And, during photosynthesis, they make oxygen. Yes, the oxygen that we need a lot. Back to the leave life, they need this three things: water, air, and sunlight to make sweet sugar to the plant. Roots soak up water from the soil. Then the stem bring it up to the leaves. Leaves catch carbon-dioxide from air with their tiny holes. Then the sun shine over, kisses the special chemical inside leaves, chlorophyll. And there they are: making food for the plant.

As the plant growing bigger. Bigger, and bigger. The leaves just do what they have to do. Everyday. Sometimes they have to fall out some of them. But yeah, the roots save the food. So they saved. And life keeps on turning. Bigger, stronger.

How wonderful.
