Thank you for your friendly reply ClaraYou have lived the life with caring and love in your heart. Surely such love will be returned.
Nice example of the worms gasping for airWhen it rains, worms gasp for air and come to the surface, and end up in storm drains where they will drown or dry up. I rescue them and put them back into the soil, in a relatively dry spot where they could survive. I worry about stepping on bugs as I walk.
I wonder if the microbes in the soil have souls or feelings?
I worry about wearing leather (shoes, belts).
I noticed worms coming out of the ground, and here I see them moving to the roads, I was wondering why the road, many bicyclist, so they get killed.
Once there was a beautiful huge butterfly sitting in the middle of the road. It was in India, and very hot and dry (I thought the poor butterfly might get baked, that's how hot the road was)
Hence I picked the butterfly up and placed it next to the road in the grass, much cooler I thought.
When I returned after some time, I saw that the butterfly was eaten (alife?) by ants. And I felt so horrible that I took the butterfly from the road and placed it on the grass, just to be eaten by ants alive
I got the feeling that the butterfly knew it's end was nearing, and choose to die by sitting on the road, knowing that the hot road was too hot for the little legs of the ants, avoiding to be eaten alive
After this experience I am much more careful with interfering with animal their choices
