From C to shining C

A spin on Circles and Commitment

that is

Centering

for me during a time of transitioning into what's next in my external world,

which reminds me that the only 'what's next' worthy of my attention in my internal world is my next breath... of which I am grateful to receive.

I live my life in widening circles

that reach out across the world.

I may not complete this last one

but I give myself to it.

 

I circle around God, around the primordial tower.

I've been circling for thousands of years

and I still don't know: am I a falcon,

a storm, or a great song?

 

~ Ranier Maria Rilke ~

The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating - in work, in play, in love.

The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation.

To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.

~ Anne Morriss ~
