What a simple post, yet so powerful. And for some reason it made me think of the parable of the soils... the rocky, vs the good soil, etc. It is true that weeds (even small ones) are hard to remove from rocky soil (the roots really are locked in there!), but are fairly easy to extract when the soil is good.
