S'ok I am not trying to drum all the fun out of it, rather just trying to show that what started out as a passing fascination of beautiful things turned into a passion for beauty of fascinating things.
Thanks for sharing your perspective though and really I am sure we would touch more on the subject if we were allowed to. Crystals play a big part in various pagan rituals and I was even gifted a wand of crystals by a friend.
A tale for another time methinks...
