Great group, A lurker.

Another variation on the 'negativity'/'hateful' theme! *'Disconnected' comes
from the same phycho babble stable.

Try thinking about the word "passion". *Why haven't you noticed that it is
the people with passion that you are complaining about? *The truly
passionate ones are the same ones who know about gardening. *Passionate
people may be a total pain in the end sometimes, but they are those exact
same people who observe, who are experienced and who can answer the
questions.

If they don't have direct experience, they generally want to know the answer
because they are curious. *Curiosity leads to knowledge.

Passion flare-up never seems to excuse me from being polite to others,
no matter how it might itch and burn. Besides, isn't it known to
occasionally cause blindness?

Passionflower is interestingly (to me) a sedative. Passion is
wonderful, but in my experience, passion mixed with compassion is more
effective. I apologize for my "hateful" comment. I think I may have
been a bit too passionate without remembering the "com" prefix.
