Prolific Pronouns
Look closely at issues about possession, shown in the use of possessive pronouns. Rewrite: "I kneel at my herb garden, with my seeds, and pour out my fertilizer, taking my time." Now try it without so much ownership: "I kneel at my herb garden, with seeds, and pour out the fertilizer, taking my time."

I don't get it? it IS MY garden and MY seeds... what's wrong with pride in ownership?
It may be your garden, but "your" seeds? Did you create them? My point exactly!
