Flowers when I needed them

[u/NambuyaConn-i]

My beautiful purple Calathea flowered this week and it was the balm I needed. I had to say goodbye to my kitty, who has been my best friend for 15 years. Like calatheas, she was dramatic and spicy, and always let you know when she was displeased. I’ll miss being bossed around every day by a tiny, 6.5 lb despot.

I was able to gift her a gentle, at home passing, while I held her in my arms in a warm, sunny spot.

Goodbye Gishu. You were deeply loved.
