As we are less than a month away from Easter, I am finding the story of my life to be a lot like the one Anthony De Mello told in his book, “The Song of the Bird.”
A man who took great pride in his lawn found himself with a large crop of dandelions. He tried every method he knew to get rid of them. They still plagued him.
Finally he wrote the Department of Agriculture. He enumerated all the things that he had tried and closed his letter with the question: “What shall I do now?”
In due course the response came: “We suggest you learn to love them.”
