You might have only a lawn chair. and a five dollar black and white TV, but if you have a house plant, your house is a home. The spider plant is hard to kill, as are cacti. For the novice, killability should be your first consideration.
The road to gracious living can at times seem long. If you are a young person starting out in life or if your former life unraveled for some reason and you find yourself at sea let's say, the aquisition and care of a plant can be just the ticket. Avoid the temptation to get a pet, no matter how lonely you are. No, you can't talk to your plant, at least you shouldn't be. But conversing with a dog or cat for too long can be unhealthy as well.
Water your plant now and again and perhaps decorate the pot with a marble or some other little toy you might come across. It's a little oasis. As you grow in your ability to give a dang, you will soon see the possibilities of forming other and more complicated and satisfying relationships. Good Luck.
