Mom spent 30+ years raking the leaves out from under the bushes. That shit turned into solid clay and choked all of it to death. Entire house and backyard ringed in shrubs, 4-hour job to trim it, all dead.
Old lady down the street obsessively rakes her yard and burns the leaves. Guess what it looks like? No foot or vehicular traffic, still a wasteland.
Another old guy across the street from her does the same. His entire front yard looks like Arrakis.

Blessed be thy Maker and his water.
Bless the coming and going of Him.
May his passage cleanse the world.
May he keep the world for his people
