the Journey Of IT
One day, lets call it Wednesday, a plant had grew. Now this wasn't any ordinary plant, it was different, it had: arms, legs, a head and even eyes. after some time went by and it was able to up-root its self and travel a short distance before stopping to root once more. Each day it would make it just a little bit farther, till one day it found its self on the edge of a vast lake. Now this little plant didn't know how to over come this obstacle in its way, so it did what it had done the days before this... it rooted its self and waited.
Some time had past and the plant seemed to be getting bored. It decided to take a chance and go around the lake. Seven weeks, three days, and four hours later it had made it around. It was very proud of its self for making it to the other side, but once there it didn't know where to go. Should it go around the other way? Should it walk away from the lake? Or should it just go home? This was a tough choice it had to make. It knew if it made it home, it would wonder what was just over that hill. It thought to its self " Is the grass really greener on the other side?" So it went away from the lake to find this out for its self, and to its amazement... it was exactly the same. It traveled all the way over here to see that there was no difference? But how could that be? This place was so far away from home, how can it be the same? But then it saw something. At first it didn't know what it had seen. Then it had realized that it saw something that looked like its self... it stared down at the puddle and saw that there were a few differences but mainly the same with this mysterious thing.. "How?" It asked its self, "How?" So it rooted to save energy and waited for the next day to arrive.
The next day was upon it and to its amazement, the other thing was right beside it and sleeping. Now it had a chance to figure out what the other thing was. It up-rooted then walked around this new thing. There were so many similarities but yet it was so different. The plant poked the other one to wake it from its slumber to realize that it had been hurt. The plant knew exactly what to do. It grabbed one of its leaves and put it on the other and sealed it off with some goo. The other just looked in inquiry... they looked at each other for so long that the plant rooted its self once again.
Some time past. To be exact 4 years 3 months, 5 days, 6 hours and 24 mins. These two got so close in that time, they had found out a form of communication with each other and found out they needed each other very much, for the first plant seemed to give off spores.. and the second one seemed to bear fruit.. they found none of these fruits bared seeds though, but they were happy none the less...
