Feeding plants

"Sometimes I feel useless but then I remember I breathe out carbon dioxide for plants"

As necessary as plants are I'm not quite sure our whole function is to facilitate their photosynthesis. But sometimes when we feel useless we can be exactly what someone needs just by being us and just by being there. Even if we feel like we aren't helping, a silly conversation, a few encouraging words or just showing that we care and are happy to be a part of their lives can be helpful. Perhaps more than is apparent.
