This is a quote I would like to share.

When I was visiting in Seattle, WA back in January, Ryan and I went to Starbucks and ordered our usual hot cup of chai. You know how on every cup is a quote from some random customer? I always enjoy reading them and this one in particular touched me in the relationship I am lucky to say I am in and the person I am striving to become in my every day to day life.

The Way I See It #76

The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating-

in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic,

from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation.

To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.

-Anne Morris


Of
course you have to use your head (logic) but I believe it is a balance of the heart and head.
Basically, don't be afraid to commit yourself. Whether it be to a job, a friend, a particular major, a missions trip, a church, a community, to a loved one, or to yourself. Just trust.
