Every plant carries a memory of how to survive. Through medicine, it teaches bodies how to heal. Through food, it teaches societies how to endure. Through fragrance, it teaches souls how to feel.

This is not coincidence. It is the logic of life itself; each species supporting others in a web of exchange.

Plants do not speak our languages. Yet they have fed our children, cured our illnesses, perfumed our prayers, and softened our grief. They have done so for thousands of years, patiently storing sunlight and wisdom, waiting for us to listen.

To recognise the duty of plants is to recognise our dependence. To honour that duty is to honour life itself.

In every leaf, there is history. In every root, resilience. In every flower, a message.

And in every green thing, a quiet promise:
As long as you care for me, I will care for you. - Ukatta Oganvo (1871 - 1974) - The Covenant of Living Things.
