COMMIT TO ME FOR ETERNITY OR YOU DO NOT DESERVE MY PRESENCE

Something new and fresh for me. My new guy decided to surprise me with a beautiful wonderful date at a fancy schmancy restaurant. Like real high end, pricey. And honestly speaking it's my 1st time being treated like a princess and a guy doesn't settle for a family diner like Denny's, or chili's or millers ale house....it was the sweetest romantic thing and they dimmed the lights as the place came closer to closing time. Then at the end of the date he dropped me off and we chatted on the phone for hours, and he confessed how he felt towards me and it was so heart jerking. 🥹❤️‍🔥💖💯 for once someone wants to take me seriously and treat me right. And I can't get over it. But I know I would NEVER ruin this relationship! 🥰😍😋

Commitment

The Truth About Leadership - Part 4

Values Drive Commitment

“Energy is neither good nor evil, it is the intent by which it is used that determines it’s helpful or destructive force”, Dungeon Master, Dungeons and Dragons Cartoon Series. I think Albert Einstein was also quoted saying something similar to this, after his discovery that Matter and Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, they just change forms.

Page 39 lists a series of values: success, wealth, family, freedom, growth, love, power, spirituality, trust, wisdom, health, honesty, and integrity. It also asks, “What do you really care about?” This question and these categories are about where you’re willing to place your energy into. Since thought is energy, in the human context, then intentions is the proper word for our actions, which are the physical manifestations of our thoughts.

This chapter argues the case that expressed values drive commitment. This argument is false since unexpressed values can just as easily drive a person’s commitment, just as easily as can expressed values.

In addition, this argument mixes intent and integrity. Intent as I described above is the energy or thoughts we have about different aspects of the human condition. Integrity is whether or not we maintain the social contract with ourselves and others. Or to put it in a context that is closer to what this chapter is discussing, what if everyone had an unwritten, mainly spoken, contract with each other. What would that contract be about? And why would you choose to honor that contract? Now, what if the spoken contract were not the contract you are choosing to follow, but instead have a hidden agenda. Now the difference between intent and integrity becomes clear.

Commitment occurs when two or more parties agree on a verbal social contract. I will commit to working, playing, spending time, and/or being with you, if your intentions at the time are the same as mine. For example, let’s go biking. This is simple enough, until the leader finds that after 6 degrees of separation, their ex-love happens to be a member of the biking group consisting of 200 people. And for the next 5 hours they are going to be touring through some very lovely terrain. Now this is a quandary for the leader of the biking group. Should he lead the group, or leave because someone’s values he can no longer agree with is a member of the group? (Grist for the Mill, or Sauce for the Goose?)

The social contract that the bike leader agreed to was, “To lead the biking group on a tour.” However, if his intentions or positions on his judgments towards his ex-love are made known this may end the biking tour for that day. However, if he withholds these judgments, the biking tour may go forward, everyone may have a great time, and as long as there is physical distance between the two, they may both separately enjoy the tour.

In this case, it is not expressed value that is driving the decision, but unexpressed values, which allows the bike tour guide to remain in integrity to his contractual obligations. Others may be aware of his dis-ease, and feel that he is upholding a great sense of integrity as he leads the tour, all the while knowing the personal emotional strain he is under.

The case that is used here is around an employment opportunity. As “The New Leader’s 100 Day Action Plan” (2009) by George B. Bradt, et. al., ISBN 978-0-470-43984-5, location 533 states, “There are only 3 fundamental questions asked during an interview: 1) Can you do the job? 2) Will you love the job? 3) Can I tolerate working with you?” Or put in other words: Skills, Enthusiasm, and Culture, or Strengths, Motivations, and Fit. Enthusiasm and motivations are forms of intent. Why do you want to be a leader? What motivated you to become a leader? Why did this particular issue cause you to become more engaged and enthusiastic than other people?

If I were to answer my own question, “Why is it important for me to write book reviews on leadership?” I think the answer would be, “Because I found the definition of leadership. I want to share it with people. I want to help foster others who are using the correct techniques to grow and empower positive leaders. I want to help the general public recognize people who are bad, negative, and dark leaders.” This answer demonstrates the three key points George made earlier: skill, motivation and culture.

He had women who wanted to become part of his life. But, did he really ever want one to be part of his?

I have very serious commitment issues. I spend hours at a time on Netflix, start something then just. like. stop??? And with books too???? Oh and fanfiction.

And it has nothing to do with the quality either??? I just can’t commit. To anything

yoongi's pov

I can’t stop thinking about it.

 Every time I look at Y/N, I see the pain in her eyes, the way she flinches whenever something reminds her of him. 

It makes my blood boil, knowing what that bastard did to her. And now, to find out that the daughter he’s been raising isn’t even his. that was the final straw.

I didn’t want to get involved, not like this, but I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.

 Jungkook deserves to know the truth, to feel the same betrayal he put Y/N through. I know it won’t erase what happened, but maybe it’ll give him a taste of his own medicine.

Meeting with Eun-ha was surreal. Watching the realization dawn on his face, seeing the anger and hurt. it’s exactly what I needed to see.

I sat across from Eun-ha at the café.

“I appreciate you meeting with me,” I began, my voice steady but low. “I know this is all very sudden.”

Eun-ha nodded, his expression cautious. “I didn’t know what to expect when I got your message. You said it was about Ae-ri and the baby… Can you explain what this is about?”

I took a deep breath, sliding a small folder across the table toward him. “I’ll explain everything, but first, I need you to understand something important. The child Ae-ri is raising with Jungkook…it’s not his. It’s yours.”

Eun-ha’s hand froze just above the folder, his eyes widening in shock. “What…? That can’t be right.”

 He had no idea that Ae-ri(jungkooks wife" had lied to him, kept his child from him all these years.

“It is,” I replied, my tone firm but empathetic. “I had a DNA test done, and it confirmed that you’re the biological father.”

He slowly opened the folder, staring at the test results inside. His face went pale as he processed the information, and I could see the confusion and disbelief swirling in his eyes.

“I don’t understand,” he said after a long pause. 

“Ae-ri and I broke up before she ever mentioned being pregnant. She just…ended things out of nowhere, and I never heard from her again. She didn’t tell me anything about a baby.”

“She never told you because she moved on with Jungkook almost immediately,” I explained.

 “She let him believe that the baby was his, and he’s been raising her as if she were. But she’s your daughter, Eun-ha. You have a right to know.”

Eun-ha slumped back in his chair, his expression a mixture of anger and sorrow.

 “She just…dumped me without a word. I had no idea. If I’d known, I would have taken responsibility. I would have been there.”

I nodded, understanding the pain in his voice. “I know. And that’s why I wanted to meet with you. You deserve to know the truth. But there’s more you need to be aware of.”

He looked up at me, his brows furrowing in confusion. “What do you mean?”

“Jungkook…he’s not the man you might think he is,” I said carefully, choosing my words. “He was with Y/N, a woman I care deeply about. He mistreated her in ways that are unforgivable...emotionally, physically, and psychologically. And now, he’s raising your child while still being the person who caused so much pain.”

Eun-ha’s eyes darkened as he absorbed my words. “So, what are you saying? That Jungkook doesn’t deserve to raise my daughter?”

I shook my head slightly. “What I’m saying is that Jungkook needs to face the consequences of his actions. But more importantly, your daughter deserves to know her real father...the one who would have been there for her if he’d only known.”

Eun-ha sighed deeply, running a hand through his hair as he stared down at the table. “This is…a lot to take in. I don’t even know where to start.”

“I understand,” I said gently. “And I’m not asking you to make any decisions right now. I just needed you to know the truth. Whatever you choose to do next, I’ll support you. But I think you should consider being a part of your daughter’s life, even if it means confronting Ae-ri and Jungkook.”

Eun-ha looked up at me, determination settling in his eyes. “I’m not going to let this go. I want to be in my daughter’s life, no matter what it takes. But I need time to figure out how to approach this.”

“That’s all I ask,” I said, feeling a sense of relief. “Take the time you need. And if you ever need help or support, I’m here.”

 he’s determined to be a part of his daughter’s life. I respect that, but I also know how dangerous this information is.

“Please,” I told him, sliding the documents across the table, “don’t say anything yet. I need time to figure this out, to make sure this doesn’t blow up in Y/N’s face.”

Eun-ha looked at me, his eyes full of pain and understanding. “I just want to be there for my daughter,” he said. “But I get it. I won’t say anything. Not yet.”

I nodded, feeling a strange sense of relief. This was the right move. It had to be.

Damn imagine it's 2024 and you can trust someone with your heart and soul. They want you emotionally as much fiscally, and it never ends cause you both know you're the one for each other. No need for drama, no fights unless they silly and about food lol imagine having that kind of perfect relationship in 2024!! Imagine?!

I agree, it should work both ways though... we guys find these attractive qualities too... remember this... ☺️😊🤗

So much this!!!!!!

Nothing would be more devastating than to hear these words from Jesus, and it begs the question we all ought to ask:

How would you rate YOUR love and commitment for God? Is it close, devoted, and reverent? Or casual, presumptive, or lacadaisical?

If you don’t reverence the Lord as Almighty, the Creator who MADE YOU and LOVES YOU wholeheartedly and have not this same union with Him in your heart, your 'lukewarmness' might as well be ICY COLD.

Friend, if this is the case in your life, look inside your heart and examine where you stand with the Lord. If you need to rekindle your love for God, don’t stay in a rebellious or indifferent state! Instead pray:

Dear LORD, I have cooled my heart towards you. Please forgive me, Lord. I am so sorry, and I ask You to soften my heart, because I realize how much you love me. I don’t want to be lukewarm in my life towards you, but instead to rightfully honor you as my Lord and God with my whole heart on fire for you from this moment on for the rest of my life. — AMEN

God Bless Your Day Jesus Loves You

Having happy thoughts and sweet moments together do not necessarily define your love for someone. How you endure hardships together, without leaving your partner, that's how you define, LOVE. #lovehim #commitment #blessed #Tagaytay #memories

Right man will always try their best to live up their promises, while this fake boy make commitments easily but seldom keep them.

here's a random word generator--whatever word it gives you is now the thing you are the deity of

A lot of people ask me what my biggest fear is, or what scares me most. And I know they expect an answer like heights, or closed spaces, or people dressed like animals, but how do I tell them that when I was 17 I took a class called Relationships For Life and I learned that most people fall out of love for the same reasons they fell in it. That their lover’s once endearing stubbornness has now become refusal to compromise and their one track mind is now immaturity and their bad habits that you once adored is now money down the drain. Their spontaneity becomes reckless and irresponsible and their feet up on your dash is no longer sexy, just another distraction in your busy life. Nothing saddens and scares me like the thought that I can become ugly to someone who once thought all the stars were in my eyes.
