Farming and relationship- Repost.


I have posted this before using my old handle I am reposting it for someone in an abridge version. Enjoy.

Living in a farm for several years I realized that taking care of your relationship is like farming. A little bit of shit to your plants help. You can’t put too much water nor too much sun. Water I akin to attention and sun to neglect in a relationship and you know what shit is figuratively I suppose. Shit or manure is fertilizer, it nourishes the plants but you can only put so much at a time. If you put a lot of manure or shit in your plant then it will not grow, it may die or grow some toxic weeds or poisonous mushrooms. In the early years of your plant you have to pour a lot of attention to it, you will have to shield it from too much sun, too much rain and the worse weather like typhoon. Yet despite all that efforts you cannot be so sure in the early years if it will give you the fruit you expected but if you continue to look after it you will eventually get the reward.

Once your plant has grown into a tree with established roots it can bear more shit and can withstand harsh weather but you still have to guard it and look after it so that it will continue to give you fruits. Your tree will give you fruits, fulfilment and fill you with pride. Same principle applies to a relationship I think.

I am not an expert in farming or relationship it's just my own personal experience and observation.

Hi Bizz,

Anybody could be an expert in farming, it can be learn in a matter of time. On the other hand, nobody can be an expert in relationship related matter. A continously learning process - there's always something new to learn..

Farming atleast there are good harvest. In a relationship if really bad none at all. I totally agree with Sis Thet. Takes more time and effort to make a relationship work...

Greatest feelings in the world when two souls profess a love for each other...
