treating myself like a plant

my mind and body are usually Not in good shape, i have chronic mental and physical illnesses so it has been pretty rough recently. but i feel like it's a lot easier to take care of myself if i pretend im taking care of a plant. make sure my plant gets enough water, sometimes some sun, make sure my soil is full of nutrients ect. the nutrients in question are currently pizza rolls. my plant loves pizza rolls. i find it's easier to be compassionate to myself if i think of it this way.
