I once had a strange dream about leeks. The leeks in the dream were spread everywhere like a thick green carpet. Naturally, this dream triggered my thinking and exploration about leeks.
Leeks are one of the oldest vegetables, with many types and varieties. Because it is easy to grow and eat, has a delicious taste and is rich in nutrients, it is also known as the "king of vegetables" and "poor man's coriander" among the people. In the northern region of our country, leeks are almost everywhere, whether in family meals or as delicacies at banquets, and are very popular. Moreover, leeks have many medicinal values, such as dispelling wind and relieving the surface, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, etc.
But even though leeks have such rich nutritional value, they are not taken seriously by people. People pay more attention to the delicious food and ignore the common but ignored crops in nature. This phenomenon can also be seen as people's neglect of the environment and natural resources. In this case, we need to pay more attention to the protection and discovery of plant resources.
In addition, leeks in the dream reminded me of people's dependence on nature and life. It is precisely because of the gifts and elements of nature that various creatures, including us humans, have been able to evolve. Therefore, we should better care for nature, animals and plants, and do our part to jointly maintain this beautiful home planet.
Although the leek in the dream seems to be a very ordinary vegetable at first, it has a profound meaning and inspiration in my dream. This also made me deeply reflect on the damage caused by human beings to the natural environment and ecological balance. Leeks also naturally remind me of some practical issues about protecting nature and cherishing ecology, which makes me admire nature more and be grateful for everything that life has given us.
