What lazy love is this, asking nothing, requiring nothing, hoping nothing. What lazy love is this not willing to say,” if you love me, be true to me. the basic requirement of commitment?” What lazy mind is this saying, ” do as you wish, say what you wish, and I will be out here somewhere just loving you.
True love has obligations. True love does require. It requires the better part of you to emerge. to step up to a higher standard of truth.
Lazy love after all is really no love at all.

Hi Loda, I really like this. I think about my own children who have been involved in “loving” relationships with no commitment requirements. All that ends up in is heartache and empty, selfish relationships. I could go on with that, not as poetic as you did. Think I’ll share your ponderings. Sorry we didn’t get to see you this summer. Our director at the camp passed away in April, and we were asked to please help for all of the camp sessions. Had just a few days to rush over to Alabama to see family over the 4th and never had the opportunity to get away on the weekends. God was at work there though, and so it was a good place to be, hot and hard and some tough kids to deal with, but God’s obvious provisions. Got to call soon. And hey, you have a birthday coming up. Blessings to you, Deb
