Committed

I am re-starting, re-focusing, re-energizing, spending more time in and on my music and getting that music and any message I may have out into the world. 

I committed to write a regular blog. 

I made a commitment to be a regular blog writer. 

I am committed. 

It's a serious sounding word. 

I thought I'd look up the dictionary definitions of commit-committed-am committed to. 

I promise-say definitely.  I am loyal to the idea of.. 

Is a commitment more serious than a promise?  Does it feel different? 

If I commit to doing something and don't, do I feel better or worse than if I promised. 

Is a promise something I did when I was a younger and more naive version of me?  Or was a promise something I made? 

Something I created, a bond to myself or someone else.  To do, to entrust, to pledge, to bind. 

These are serious words and weighty.  To be used for more serious events than writing a blog for a sometime artist. 

These are the words I should embrace using when I describe great things, things that matter. 

I am committed to being a kinder, more understanding, more compassionate human. 

And I'm writing a blog, about life, and music and maybe more words I look up in the dictionary. 

Love, 

M
