In a garden
with lovely vibrant blossoms and fresh crisp green vegetation, weeds are
inevitable. A gardener has to be vigilant, always on the lookout for them; de-weeding
every now and then, or else the plants in the garden would grow weak and wilt. But some of the weeds are so beautiful; you may not even want to pluck them off. Looking at the beauty of these naturally growing plants, it makes me wonder, who are we to mercilessly pull the weeds out?
Weeds are also a part of nature, essentially God’s creation. Nothing exists without a reason; nothing comes into being on its own. So, are we out of our selfish desires, deciding on our own to put an end to a life that is actually meant to live on?
