So I didn't know this until today, but I am a beast with a pick. I do an awesome job of heaving it over my shoulder and coming down with such authority that the weeds and roots TREMBLE. Let's not concentrate on the fact that I had to be cautioned on ramming the back of the pick into my butt as I raised it over my shoulder. Let's also not concentrate on how soar my shoulders are right now. What we can focus on is that it felt so good to uproot those weeds, knowing that eventually I will plant beautiful flowers in the garden. And it also made me think about the process I'm going through in my life right now in "de-weeding" and getting rid of those things that just choke the energy and beauty out of it. Weeds beware! I have a pick and I ain't afraid to swing it!
