I Do
Sincere commitments grow within us incrementally. Our lifetimes are the gift and the pledge of service to those we love, and to our desire to live as one with all of creation. As I say I do, I plant a seed in my heart which I will tend and nurture through all kinds of weather. Then on that day when my strength begins to wane, I will have this seed grown into a towering tree to lean my tired body against and one day be buried beneath. Even the greatest love, seemingly come all at once, arrives as only a seed of its potential to grow into the scaffolding for our entire lives.
