I am sure a potato can suffer when you rip them from the ground, their mother (the earth, Gaia) when you are aborting them. An apple, when you are killing every seedling (aborting) that will never touch the spring and summers love of bloom. And a tree that feels the most. Tens to a Thousand+ years of growth just to be massacred and made to feel your stupid thought written on it's flesh. I feel the earth and I am one with Gaia.

I do relate to this sentiment, and I think it’s important to feel one with our beautiful home we call Earth. But remember that animals also fall under this umbrella of life, and from what we know through scientific study, these creatures have nervous systems and brains making them capable of experiencing a range of emotions. And this is a trait that us humans share with our animal friends, so we should give them the love and liberties that they deserve, not enslave and exploit them.
