Stop Pulling My Weeds

Brad Beck’s father recently turned ninety-one years old. When Beck traveled to Southern California to visit his father, Beck observed that the foliage in his father’s yard was unkempt, overgrown, and “in need of attention.” His father saw it differently. Beck draws a correlation between his idea of what was best for his father’s yard and PBIs (Politicians, Bureaucrats, and Interested Parties) who think they know what is best for our lives.
