“Commitment is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism”

I love perfect-timed fortune cookies. I don’t know if I believe in signs, but I do believe that perspective is everything. And if something is presented at a moment that one’s mind, consciously or sub-consciously, is seeking an answer, then the interpretation can feel enlightening as it is perceived.

Commitment is a decision, as is skepticism. I generally choose skepticism so that I can be shielded and avoid huge mistakes. Avoiding things is rarely an answer, though. Facing things and believing in them, having faith and compassion – that’s how we grow. That’s how we feel. And I need to be more okay with that.
