The Smell of the Earth 🌿🌿 The earthly smell reminds me to live, enjoy and spread happiness! *Yes, the smell of earth. I guess, we have something in our genes that makes us feel revived by the smell of earth. The soil, the leaves, the most usual thing around nature makes me happy.* This is my mom's water pumpkin plant. I was surprised to see how she reused the broken cage. And look, the plant is growing nice. *There's something in it, the broken bamboo fence, the d cage, the green; everything looks so perfectly imperfect. It was enough to make my day.*

Or maybe it's because I live in a megacity apartment, where everything is so we'll decorate that sometimes imperfections seem nice to me. Back then my mom was a little sick and that's my reason to visit her. So she couldn't take care of her garden much. I was seeing all the garden weeds, rubbish here and there. But that also looks quite impressive to me. Ahh, my poor heart; thirsty for the smell of earth. Look, the tiny wildflowers look amazing. Aren't they? *I spent some time rearranging the garden, cleaning the garden weeds, water the plants. But intentionally didn't shift the water pumpkin plant in a larger pot. It seemed like, the plant is well fitted in that discarded cage.*

The earthly feeling, the smell of soil has something charming in it. I have no farming experience, so I won't say, it's connected to my childhood or anything. But as I was saying, maybe it's in our genes. Or maybe it's the power of nature. That always helps us feel good, heal us, and make us happy. Whatever it is, I wish I could live with that smell. But unfortunately, my nose is too cozy to have the smell of the city. Maybe someday...
