FOR THE LEAF LOVERS

Do you love leaves?

Recently, I often hear about a hobby to grow and take care leaves. There are some people who spend much fund just for buying plants which have no flower but leaves. And, waste time and money to give appropriate care for the leaves.

“It is not good to spend much fund just for leaves!” I said to my friend.

“You don’t know, Nova. When you like or keen on or love something, you will sacrifice everything for it,” said my friend.

I still could not understand why some people love leaves, not flower.

Two weeks ago, I read a newspaper. For me, the best part of a newspaper is the short story column. The short story in this newspaper always contain deep meaning of morality and education messages. When I read it, it was also about the hobby to grow leaves plants. The messages that I read in this short story :

“Don’t you think that leaves are precious?

Leaf is the is the creature which can cook and produce its own food.

Leaf is the creature which can produce oxygen and blows it out to the air.

Don’t you know, the calorie which transmit from a creature to the other creatures begin from leaves?

Why don’t you care about leaves? The source of the air you breathe, the source of calorie you need.

How sad the leaf lovers are! Everytime they see the leaves fall down because of human deed, the

trees are cut down, the forest are bold.”(by Gus TF Sakai)

After reading this short story, I remember about Green community and organization. Leaf lovers are the reason for ‘Go Green Community!’ ; The reason for Green Organization. Leaf lovers, they are the people who work for the leaves and trees. They are the people who want to minimize natural disasters, they are the people who want this earth as a comfort place to live, they love what God had endowed to us.

Although my mother like to grow and care flower and leaves, but I am the person who don’t really care about leaves. I prefer to cook than caring for plants. But now, after knowing that leaves play important role in our live, I don’t want to judge the leaf lovers anymore.
