"When you do things right, people will wonder if you've ever done anything at all"

ok, i know this is a really weird place to find inspiration but i just got done watching an episode of futurama where bender(the robot character) meets God.  the ending of the episode had a conversation between God and bender and them talking about how hard it is to be God.  God tells bender that it's hard finding a balance to what you do, b/c "when you're God, if you do too much people get dependant, if you don't do enough, people lose hope. when you do things right, people will wonder if you've even done anything at all"  this reminds me of the exodus with the israelites complaining about how God doesn't take care of them, and then when He does, they expect more and more.

it makes you think about how you think about God, at least it makes me think.  i know that i have moments where i doubt God and if i really am doing what God wants me to be doing.  i don't claim to have everything figured out and have it all together.  i just try to do the best w/ what i have.

i think this line applies to everything.  at a job it seemed like the more i did the more they wanted me to do and when i didn't do as much they thought that i was just lazy.  when i was doing what i was supposed to do, nothing more yet nothing less i would get asked if i had done my job, which i had.  could it be a no-win situation in life as far as getting credit where credit is due.

anyway, it just blows my mind that something like futurama can spark a thought process like that.
