Weeds grow automatically

I was listening to a podcast about a week back (I can’t remember which one), and one thing that was said stood out…
“Weeds grow automatically”
It struck me as something that’s true of life, isn’t it? Even if we do nothing, there will be stuff around us that is pure crap. It just happens, doesn’t it? We didn’t ask for it, did nothing to make it happen, yet it’s there… staring at us in the face.
Now what?
A lot of us choose to be pissed off at it. Some even carry those weeds with them and pass them out at work or in a family setting. We’re just so angry that we have to deal with something we didn’t ask for in the first place.
My recommendation: Just pull them out and toss them away.
Recognize that these stupid things don’t deserve a place in your life and discard them. The last thing you want to do is to give them life by extending their lifespan.
Sure, it takes effort in yanking them out of your life, but isn’t it worth it? Isn’t is worth it to deal with them briefly and have them out of your life rather than have them rule your life?
It’s pretty easy… as long as you want them out. It’s tough, if you want to carry them.
