It was signed "Helen," and it contained a P.S.: "If we ever break up, I want this picture back." Helen was obviously not completely committed to that relationship she had already planed for the back door.
The pathway to hell is paved with good intentions. Intentions are not commitments. We are not a generation of commitments but loopholes. We are often committed to the idea but not to the task.
John Maxwell--in his book "Be a people person"-----states--"Until I am committed, there is a hesitancy, a chance to draw back. But the moment I definitely commit myself, then God moves also, and a whole steam ...
