To The One Who Is Afraid To Commit

To my friend who can't commit, get with it.

In life, we make commitments all the time. We make commitments to jobs and friends. We make choices and commit to going to a certain college. We commit to having a healthy lifestyle and to crossing off items on our bucket list. We make commitments in marriage and as Christians we commit to follow Christ every single day. Our human life is full of commitments.

However, this isn’t the case for everyone. Some people just can’t commit. For whatever reason they are notorious for changing plans and saying “maybe” instead of giving a definite answer. They don’t stay in one place for long, and they are in and out of relationships whether that be friends or significant others.

So, to my friend who can’t commit, get with it.

We are people. We make mistakes, but we need each other. We need people we can rely on and people need to be able to rely on us. Be someone others can rely on.

Stop being flaky and scared. It’s okay to commit to plans. Its okay to commit to having friends and being in a relationship. That’s part of what life is!

Pick a place and stick around for a while. Get invested with people. Quit running away when things get hard or you get bored. Try it out and I guarantee good things will come in the end.

Lastly, commit to your relationship with God. He is truly the only person in this life you can rely on 100% of the time. He will never fail you. Find Him, and pursue Him every single day.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
