Minimal, you say.
Is that like – just enough?
Does that mean there’s no need to go
Beyond the basic stuff?
Minimal, you say.
Do barely what’s required?
Exactly what I saw in print
The day that I was hired?
I see thing differently.
To me the minimalists
Are shirkers, slackers, slothful souls.
Who live just to exist.
To live a life worthwhile
Requires a finer sense.
One must in all endeavors strive
To offer excellence.

Great thoughts. Yes, Christ expects us to do our best, not just the minimal. Our best should be much more than minimal. [aproflee is leesbird.com in disquise]
Doesn’t “minimalist” refer to those with few possessions?
Not accurately. Some people use it that way. But the basic definition is “one who takes a moderate or very basic approach to achieving goals” — exerting nothing extra.
I assume that stands for “At Professor Lee.” I saw a comment by you earlier but didn’t make the connection. What fun.
Adjunct Professor Lee, if you please. 🙂 That’s the title they gave me and my practice WordPress blog needed a new name. Wah, Lah! AProfLee. 🙂
It’s as cute as can be.
I definitely agree with your wise words!
