I do think consciousness and being seen and paid attention and love to is what nature and everything needs in general, but then again sometimes we like to be hidden off too so I'm not sure. I think every crystal deserves love and to be appreciated, but they probably enjoy just chillin with their fellow crystal posse or alone somewhere at times too.
(rambling disclaimer- maybe I should just put this disclaimer with an asterisk in my signature from now on haha)
I have literally thousands of crystals. but I feel like I have a personal relationship with most of them. however I have gotten batches like a 50 pound one once for instance, so I do have a lot of rough common pieces repeated a bunch of times that I haven't paid as much attention to, ie bunch of jaspers that are not that notable looking and stuff. You know sometimes I felt that a certain crystal wasn't what I needed or wanted at the time (when I pick one or some to hang out with on a given day or night, I guess I do it on intuition and which colors or feelings of individual ones seem to want to come) or I just didn't feel that drawn to a crystal in general or I don't want to say this but just didn't enjoy it that much. I felt real bad about that and still do, but I keep reading others talk about crystals not resonating with them or not being the stone for them so I guess that it's normal, even though I still want to cherish all and any crystal..
Anyway though I have so many crystals cuz well I had chunks of school loan money I could spend sort of freely for a period of time. and while I gave some away to people including strangers on buses and stuff, I have been wanting to sell some for a while. just not sure I will be successful so haven't gotten myself to put in enough of the effort and steps yet. but they won't all be staying with me of course. I really love them all but even the prettiest or coolest most appealing ones, there are certain ones I feel like well yeah that one is meant for someone else, so I guess that's good. it will not be easy to part with a lot of them, but knowing others will benefit and they'll be appreciated by a new magical owner will help the process. and then they will get to be displayed and stored in a new way.. perhaps most of them enjoy the little hiatus I'm giving them. but really the main reason I keep them in there is because I don't have the energy to wash them all and organize them. although the place I'd ideally put them is still tucked away, in a dresser drawer thing with rainbow drawers. it is plastic but I have them mainly resting on paper towel made from bamboo in there. I do want to make more displays and stuff as I said though. another little one I've had is a set of rainbow colored tumbles in front of a pretty pastel neon rainbow colored box I painted on top of the dressers there. and a few other places in my room too but anyway I'll end this now lol sorry. oh lastly I did just put out two big (well several inches wide and tall) amethyst clusters I have in the living room

haha I can relate to the spending of student loans. I got some huge checks when my first student loans came through and I spent it so badly.
if you want to offload a few you can give some to me =) I only have 5-6. The two I work with mostly are a labradorite sphere and amethyest sphere. The others that I have are like quarts crystal and iron pyrite, fairly common stuff but still cool. If the shipping or mailing cost is an issue just let me know and I'll find a way to send you a few dollars.
