Commitment seems to be the theme of the hour. I've committed myself to many different projects, groups, and people. Additionally, I've committed to better eating and health routines for myself. While I know all of these things are good and important, on this day I was feeling very overwhelmed. The commitments felt like prison bars. And yet I could see all the beauty that these commitments would bring. Sometimes I only focus on the feelings of being trapped instead of realizing I'm actually on the beautiful side of the bars.
