Brenda was changing channels and the very end of Entertainment Tonight came on. Have you ever seen how they do the credits? They fly by – they scroll up at 100 mph at least. No way you can read any of them. Maybe you recognize a logo or two – you think.
Brenda said, “Legalistic.” She’s joking but she has a point.
You don’t really mean it. You just want to be able to say you did it. But you got no interest or passion or caring. It’s all external. Fulfill your legal obligation as minimally as possible, and if anyone challenges you, you can always say, Hey, whadyamean? I did what I was supposed to.
Lots of things you can do that way: Work. Parenting. Marriage. And of course religion.
