Being surrounded by the plants in that place is what keeps me sane the whole time of waiting. I had mixed emotions at that time, I was like wishing for the time to stop, and at the same time, I'm wishing for it to tick faster and get everything over. The gloomy weather didn't even help, and I feel more scared.
And during the time that I was like this, I am thankful that I was surrounded by beautiful scenery because I found solace in it. The heart was beating so fast, but it slowed down, as if it were being affected by the beauty of the place's quietness. This is the time when I appreciate more the existence of those plants and flowers in the world. They really exist for a lot of reasons. They have lively color to brighten our world, and in those dark times, here they are giving us light and color.
We arrived at the hospital at 6:30 am. I'm glad that we only spent one and a half hours on the road, we started traveling exactly at 5 am. I like the van where we ride at that time. It runs smoothly and a little faster, but not too shaky, it's one of those travel experiences that I like. I'm listening to music the whole duration of our travel, and even at that time, I feel like shit already. And it's not helpful that I keep on coughing like I have free fireworks inside with how loud my cough is, lol. Like seriously, why it has to happen that time on that day no ಥ‿ಥ.
But thanks to heaven, my suffering ended when we arrived at our destination. Although my headache didn't disappear completely that time, yeah, I also had a headache that day. Maybe because my nose is totally blocked and I have phlegm or something. I just focused my attention on my surroundings rather than the pain and those unwanted feelings I had. It's rather effective, and the short walk I took was very refreshing for my head.
I may be making a tough face in front of everyone, laughing like it's nothing, and even talking casually, but deep inside me, I'm already anxious about what's about to happen. Well, I mean, it's a big operation for me, so I think it's just normal to feel that way, right? But I hate the weakness I'm showing at that time, I feel so exposed.
Look at all this beauty here. I'm not familiar with this, but it's really cool. I'm not sure too what's going on here, like it's a leaf, right? And on top of it, it was like a flower. Or maybe it's just a leaf that changes color too, and that's really unique. It's amazing how nature works, it's fascinating.
And here's another set of plants, they have beautiful colors and look perfect in this spot. They are also growing just fine in here. I think even if people don't manage them well, they will still grow beautifully because in this spot they can get good sunlight, and if ever it rains, they will also receive it all, which is good for them, right? Just look how healthy they are ฅ•ﻌ•ฅ.
Being surrounded by different kinds of plants and bright flowers really is a big help to human mental health, do you agree? Is this the reason why the hospital designed it this way? I think a lot of hospitals have this kind of view. But how many people do you think was saved with this kind of sceneries in the hospital. For sure, some use the garden as their safe haven where they could think, cry and even decide. I really hope more hospitals has this kind of garden too.
