The mint

The mint plant in my room is growing very well.

I bought that near the Valentine’s day. At that time this mint still seemed fragile, standing on the shelf of supermarket, label saying “I’m BIO.” Yes, that’s how a “BIO thing” supposed to look like: weak, malnourished, all of its energy is being sucked out. Yet you can feel that they are HARMLESS. That’s the point of bio things, isn’t it? Anyway, this mint plant caught my eye and after half a minute I put it into my cart. Didn’t consider much, since I know that I need a plant to light up my room and mint is somewhat suitable and sometimes useful, for cooking. You may say that Parley could be more useful when it comes to cooking; but there’s no Parsley on the shelf. Everybody thought so: “hmm, Parsley could be more useful.” So there’s no Parsley anymore. Sold out already. However, the aroma of mint is more tempting for me -if we just talk about the scent.

Same reason for the herbal tea. For example, I have Kraeutertee. I bought that not just because of the package looks nice, to tell the truth; also because I like the aroma of mint. It goes against the lazy-factors inside my body, and eventually balances it, and then I feel peace inside myself.

Now the mint plant is prosperous with lots of light green leaves, and I haven’t taken even one of them, to cook or do something else. Just sometimes walk near and smell the aroma of it. Calm me down or so. This plant has only be here for two weeks but already saw lots of things happened to me, I’ll say.
