Eons ago, a little boy who liked ice-cream also used to like
digging holes. And so, from a very early age, he used to go down to the dirt
lane at the bottom of his garden and play “road menders”.
That consisted of digging up some of the smaller rocks in
the lane and then filling in the resulting hole again, smoothing things out as
he proceeded.
Years later, this same little boy married this little girl.
The little girl liked plants. Plants need holes.
And so, the little boy gets to play “road menders” again.
Digging the holes and filling them in again.
I think there is an expression “what goes around comes round”.
What a truism this is.
