Commitment



I will walk beside you when things are good and things are bad.
To me, loving is a total commitment,
a complete surrender of the heart,
the mind, and soul.

Loving is one's deep and intense concern for life, well-being, and security of another.

If perhaps some special needs,
I will make every effort to achieve their fulfillment for you.

If at times you feel lonely, I will try to
cheer you and dispell your loneliness.

If you ever need sympathy, I will try to comfort you with my words, my touch, my presence.

Only the commitment of my love will make this possible.

I pledge to remain faithfully yours until death seperates us.

I ask God's help in keeping this solemn vow.
