– What's the difference between a commitment, a response-ability, and an obligation? – Imagine that you have no unbreakable schedules or plans, and no existing obligations. What kind of life could you commit to? And to what purpose? – What and who contributes to this commitment, and what and who weakens it, or distracts you from it? – What possible reason or excuse could there be to keep us from remaking our lives and living our dream? – What promises and commitments can you make to yourself... for yourself? – What commitments can you make to your family or your community, your culture or your kind? – What commitments can you make to the Earth? To the land? To Spirit?

We're wilder now, and there's really no going back... no closing our eyes or looking away... no

pretending we're the same women that we were before. The world out there might seem different, because we've come to see it with different eyes: opened wider, noticing more. We feel things a little deeper now, hear truth too clearly to ignore it. We know the kinds of things we need to do, and the high price we'll likely have to pay.

We can feel Mother Earth with us wherever we go and how she's committed to our connection, to our spirits and hearts. We show our gratitude by remaining acutely aware of every gift. By making the most of any inspiration and instruction. And by making commitments in return.
