What is Commitment?
Is it a state of being obligated or emotionally impelled to a course of action? Is it pledging or agreeing on the future? Is it entrusting in someone's obligations, binding them to a state of mind, or a way of life?
Consider it a given that commitment means working towards a permanent relationship. It means giving everything you have to a relationship, meeting every new challenge with courage, and always working together to keep what you have and build an even brighter future. It is the pledge to devote your best talents and efforts to making and keeping your relationship healthy, satisfying and rewarding which is the essence of a commitment.
Commitment to one's self.
Committing to one's self is important because you can't work on committing to anyone else before you are committed to yourself. Being honest enough with your self to see that you have to love, trust and respect yourself first. Taking peace and comfort in the fact that trusting yourself allows you to trust others.
The path I am on is the path I chose to walk. I trust that where I walk is the direction of my destiny. The path that intertwines my path with yours bringing us closer together.
Commitment to others.
Commitment to others involves many things. Trusting in the fact that they always will be honest and loyal to you and that it takes an inordinate commitment of time and effort is one thing. A successful partnership also demands integrity, honesty, openness, and respect from both parties. Sure of the fact that they always have your best interest at heart. Knowing that, when someone is committed to you there is peace and comfort in the knowledge that you have their steadfast love. And, they will always be there for you through all the peaks and valleys. That they will protect, teach, learn and grow together, building a bond with you toward common goals and a lifetime of closeness.
The path you are on is the path I choose to walk. Where you lay your head is where I shall lay mine. No matter the trials that lay in our way, I will be at your side. When you are strong I will walk beside you, when you are weak I will carry you. As we go through this journey fulfilling our destiny, our paths forged over time as one. Our love encompassing the journey and paving the path we are on. Through the peaks and valleys of our lives, until death parts us from our entwined path.
Remember that the greatest gain involves the greatest risk. You have to be willing to be vulnerable in order to be ready to receive what you want. There are no guarantees where love is concerned. If you want love and human connection be prepared to take some risk. A committed relationship takes work and the willingness to change.
