Commitments are hard to make.
They require total trust and complete devotion.
You need to know that the person you are committing to
Is reliable, trustworthy and faithful.

I've come to a conclusion
That every other promises we make
Center on one commitment.
Or should.

Because it is from this commitment
That we learn to be wholly devoted to Someone
Through thick and thin.
From this commitment
We learn that there is no bailing out.
There is no being selfish.
When you completely give yourself
To love, to serve and to follow.

There is no backing out
When this is a lifetime commitment.
