Saturday yard work guilt: Spraying Round-Up weed killer on those tough, determined blades of grass that grow right through the tiniest crack in the street or driveway. Don’t you sometimes admire their tenacity? Did you ever think maybe, if they can live there, they deserve to? Any old weed can grow in a flower bed.
Someone said, “a weed is a flower out of place” I for one think life’s cracks need a flower, even if it is a dandelion. jfs
Sympathy for weeds. Man, what a loving heart you have! I’m sure when I begin spraying my new bottle of roundup I will think of you. Unless I decide to let the weeds live?
Yes! I do sometimes think that very thing!
Well it’s not like I want to put Round-Up out of business or anything. But there is something about any living thing that “beats the odds” that makes you want to “root” for them. (Pun maybe just ever so slightly intended.)
For sure. Fun pun, too.
