A Kick in the Teeth for Commitment

So, the latest fad is, I don't take thee, when it comes to holy matrimony and marriage in our time.

With commitment on the wane, one wonders where all this will lead?

Greeting somone in the neighborhood is a task enough regarding as little a commitment as that is to acknowledge a neighbor. It seems as though any eye contact requires a longer commitment on the part of any dialog these days.

We have microwave ovens. Instant potatoes. Throw-away relationships. No-fault divorce.

And, a society that refused to commit anymore.

Wonder where this will go?

What's in it for you, me, the culture?

Commitment.

To study. To work. To aim high. For higher standards. For the ideal.

Is commitment gone with the wind?
