I *so* did not know that and am now so glad that I do!

Yes, I'm aware of that. I was going more for a generalized, majority type of thing.

I watch those Saturday morning "fix up your house/yard/whatever" shows with my husband and yell "tree murderer!" at the screen a lot when some ritch yutz yanks out perfectly healthy plants and trees.

Yes, we should care about plants. It makes us better people to care.

The Ritual performed when harvesting needed herbs, etc., cares for the plant and provides a "thank you" for what it provides.

I'm not a fanatic. I just like to think about this stuff.

Yes, sarettah, the rocks, too.
And anything else your naughty little mind can come up with.
This is where I gently encourage you to use the internet and search for some sites that might explain all manner of interesting things to you.

Mentally, I'm pitching a rock at your head. It's a pointless, silly fantasy, but somehow...it makes me feel better.
