Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him. It's something we call heart power. Once a man has made his commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

Commitment
What I'm looking for is a love that's forever.
Someone who can capture my soul in a heartbeat
And stay for all time.
What I'm praying for is a match made in heaven.
Someone who will worship my body and still put
His heart on the line.
Commitment.
Someone who'll go the distance.
I need somebody with staying power
Who will macke me go weak in the knees.
Commitment.
And everything that goes with it.
I need honor and love in my life.
From somebody who's playing for keeps.
What I'm searching for is a man who'll stand by me.
Who will walk through the fire and be my
Flame in the night.
Oh

Anyone who knows me, knows I don't walk away from a commitment, but I had a commitment to myself. Yes, there were times Nickelodeon made it more difficult than it needed to be, but there were also times they made it easier.

I Am Not Made
I am not made for this
I’m not strong enough
I’ve often wondered late at night
What it’s like to stop
What it’s like to have the world stop
Stop right under my feet
And start turning the other way instead
Maybe if I don’t think
Some strength will return
Maybe I could push the world around
Spin it on the tip of my finger
Get it moving again
At my pace
Let it beat in time with my heart
I think I need some strength
Just until I’m alive enough
To start living again
To start turning again
I could find someone to be my world
Someone to be my strength
I think it’s time I found some
God, please rip me up
And start again
Just like you did with the world
Do it to the Earth again
Find some way to help me
Some way to get me some strength
God, please help me start again
I might just apologise
See if I did anything to be sorry for
I might stop talking
And close up in myself again
Just like the old days
Before I had the world
And lost it again
I am not made for this
I am hurting too much
To be thrown back out in the cold
Alone and insecure
Without my world at all
I am not made for this
I am not made

You know, when companies who have made a commitment and have legacy costs and all of a sudden want to walk away from that commitment and lay it on the federal government, that's a problem. It's a fiscal problem for us.

If there is anything more dangerous to the life of the mind than having no independent commitment to ideas, it is having an excess of commitment to some special and constricting idea.

A genuine feeling
I have prepared my self mentally
It is firm resolve and commitment totally
I shall be gentle and very kind
This qualityn you will always find
I have made good start
You can feel it at heart
It is simpl tgruth and not a lie
You can trust me and rely
I shall go to any length
As you had remained my real strength
I may have all the time positive attitude
I shall never prefer isolation or solitude
I will do all the possible to reassure
The life would be bautiful for sure
It shall not be borken for any of the reason
I shall prove to be a worthy person
Touch me from any of the angle
Heart, mind an d soul has made it fine trangle
It breathes for well being of your existence
It had always been my endevour and insistence
You may touch my feelings and go
Certain things you shall have to forgo
It can’t sustain any more shocks
I have reopened all the locks
I shall work for total recall
It will never be a free fall
It is genuine wish and internal feeling
I have expressed it often with positive inkling
Nothing can reassure than your commitment
I have waited eagerly for your nod and comment
I shall take it as fine victory for mutual trust
As it is symbolic gesture and possibly must
I have tried to be nearer to the truth
It has always helped me to sooth
I take it as divine blessings
Without it, some elments may be missing

Short-story writing requires an exquisite sense of balance. Novelists, frankly, can get away with more. A novel can have a dull spot or two, because the reader has made a different commitment.

Premarital fun
She may like you, love you and have a crush.
She may flirt with you and move hand in hand.
She shuts herself to physical intimacy.
Women are mostly commitment phobic.
He may pursue you and fall at your knee.
He may lavish on you words and gifts.
He does not intend to marry you.
Men as a whole are commitment phobic.
Let him and her have crush for each other.
Let them meet, chat, and fondle together.
No heaven will fall, rather it opens.
Yes, they are commitment phobic.
Unadulterated, men and women
Will have no qualm when they marry
And can lead their life with a light heart,
Notwithstanding their premarital fun.

Staying Power
STAYING POWER
Ed Iacona
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
that's a proverb we've heard before
That doesn't mean for your marriage
you should be quick to use the door.
You made a lifelong commitment
and life isn't always sweet.
Marriage is not like computer spam
you just can't click on DELETE.
You needed change? A different world?
A metaphysical point of view?
Best reassess your self help books dear,
because real life is not all about YOU.

Promises Stated to Later Escape
Whether you stand up straight,
Or crawl...
Your determining motivation,
Should be devoted to commitment.
To complete and finish...
An obligation made,
Throughout its duration.
To excuse commitment,
With solicited procrastination...
Does not put a shine on one's integrity.
Promises stated to later escape,
Erases intentions.
And categorizes any mistakes,
One might unconsciously make...
As faked!
With an ease expected to later celebrate.
And so many seem willing,
To gather collectively...
In the sharing of this fate.
While feasting on pretensions,
And hollow impressions to salivate.

Forever Intentions
Vows made to one another
Promise's sealed with a kiss
Rings encompass trembling fingers
Forever together dreams fulfilled with this
A journey ahead into the unknown
A life and home with family wanted
Ups and downs, challanges and achievements
Nothing could stop us, together undaunted
Sadly, together forever ended too soon
Commitment now crippled, where devoted love once stood
The man who swore to love you forever
Is the same man who made sure you never could

My Secret Joy
If it were not for you
It seems that every day would be
A life unfulfilled.
Winter then forever and no smile of spring.
An icy lake without a melted heart within.
You are my secret joy.
When first I saw your face
A satisfaction took the place of sad distraction.
I knew my mind had been in a phase of leaving,
You drew me back a pace, with you I saw commitment,
This time there could be no dreaming,
No time for grieving what was past.
My secret joy was here with me.
So many times, I saw her face in your face.
That special wisdom of her eyes in your eyes,
I knew a child I thought was gone for always
Had brought joy home.
I watch you watch the joy you have made
Wonder if you know the joy that you gave
Would like you to know that the joy that you made
Is my joy too.
However long before the joy that you made.
That little blue the two of you gave.
I had a little joy of my own.
Even though the joy that I made,
Has gone the road that life takes.
Singing love songs to the joys of her own,
I see reflections of the Joy that I made,
In the eyes and the heart of the Joy, she has made.
I can see pink joy reflected in blue joy,
When I see it.
My secret joy.

Because I am afraid of commitment. This movie certainly has some bearing and is some reflection of my real feeling about relationships, because I do have commitment issues. My friends tell me I have intimacy problems, but they don't know me, so who cares what they think?

A what n when
What language has to do?
When eyes speak through
what beauty has to do?
When eyes don’t see it in spirit true
what words have to do to comment?
When it lacks promise and commitment,
what appearance has to do?
When lacks understanding and inner beauty?
What are we here and meant for?
When don’t long for each other,
what do we care for and what aim in life?
When nothing to take care of except wife
what is use of promise if they prove hollow?
When said is undone and quickly forgotten to follow,
what we search and look for when life is moving very slow?
When nothing special in it then what is use of planting seeds to grow,
why all mystery is shrouded in it?
When there is eagerness to meet
No secret in it that I long for you
Would you mind it if it is made through?
You said once you don’t care for outer look
you need a partner and not very good cook
Yes, but certainly there is everything in it,
when you ask for it I shall bring everything to your feet
I believed in frankness and straight talk
It may prove easy and smooth while you walk
Life can’t be taken as simple journey with no commitment
It has to be there with aim and desire for fulfillment
You didn’t make it clear with your firm voice
I considered it as your willingness with choice’
I could read the message in your bright eyes
It was really inviting and no refusal or bye
I still awaited your oral admission
It was desire to go ahead with permission
Why couldn’t it be made smooth without any hitch?
It is after all key to success with hidden switch
It may miss true essence if not given fair trial
There may always be yes no or denial
It may still be worth exploring for final end
If not then whole life we can remain as true friend
Sometimes we are carried away by sentiments
We fail to exchange simple compliments
It lacks firm resolution and commitment
We let slip away the chance to regret or lament
I want it to happen in lovely and beautiful manner
The relation should be tightened with fine spanner
It is in our hands to make it worth and memorable
If it is done then it will be worth commendable

My heart stopped said what is this just
As soon as you started talking
Something happened deep within me (well)
All of a sudden I got this feeling
A chill came from feet to head and then I
Turned away from you and said to myself
This is not supposed to happen brother youve been hurt too many times before
First I tripped, then I slipped, then I fell
You made me love you

Made me love you babe, (said it wasnt in my plans) made me love you babe
Ooh, look at you
Said you must be one of the top models
Body curved like a pop bottle
Got me sweating like a boxer baby
I done stumbled up on a perfect lady (awww)
Could this be what heaven sent to me
An angel come to set me free
Love has been a stranger to me
And myself keeps telling me that
This is not supposed to happen brother youve been hurt too many times before
First I tripped, then I slipped, then I fell
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, (oh yes) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (hoo) made me love you babe
Hey you made me love you

Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Said the power of love you see
Are 10 billion wonders to me (like the moon and stars above)
Theres a whole new world for my eyes to see (yes sir)
So much joy darling you put in me
And now the sun is shining where there used to be rain, oh Lord
And now no more loneliness, no more hurt, no more pain
You made whoo!

You made me love you babe, (oh) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (yes sir) made me love you babe
You you you made me love you
