"Maybe it's because my people have lived so close to the elements for so long, we're just that attuned to it, but . . . living things, the elements themselves, there's an innate energy there. Sometimes it feels a little bit like I'm, I don't know. Asking the plants to help me? Or talking to the wind -- not literally -- and being all 'hey, so could you work with me here for a little bit?' Only I'm doing it on a level they can understand."

She was going to be so excited when she could actually talk to plants someday.
