What are you committed to?


Poem Artwork

Commitments

Everybody has them

Some more

Some fewer

Some noble

Some futile

Some expensive

Some necessary

Some moral

Some imposed

Some healthy

Some neurotic

 

 

Everybody has commitments

Almost all by choice

 

What would my life be like without

One

       Single

                 Commitment?

 

I’d probably have to be committed

Yes indeed! Our lives must be purpose-driven in order to avoid a sense of futility... or does being driven by our purpose make us feel futile? Perhaps I need to be committed before I find out!? :)) xx

My commitment may yet get me committed - or at least arrested. Some nasty person called the cops on me yet again as I lurked in the shadowy bushes attempting to catch Shadow.
