No one likes renovations
Until they’re complete.

This makes me think of C.S. Lewis’ stuff in Mere Xianity about Him moving into your “house” and remodeling everything far beyond what you’d imagined. I like it!

Ah, I don’t remember that part–it’s been so long since I read that and I loved all the parts I read, but never had time to actually finish it. Perhaps this summer I’ll do so!

Wow, really? What is it that you enjoy about the process? Is it watching the transformation take place? That is pretty cool, I must admit

I agree with you, but the end result is so exciting. I don’t mind messy work if the end result is a prize
Nice Haiku.

Yes, the old ends justify the means argument
I think it is often valid
