Daily Question, August 12

What might I commit myself to today?

  • Lisa Alvarado

    I commit to managing my own anger and feelings, to stop and think before I criticize my husband.

  • Evan

    I commit myself to being joyful, curious and compassionate towards others today. Maybe it will blend into tomorrow…and the next day

  • Antoinette

    I want to commit myself to being like a tree.
    Brother David’s stop, look and go helps me to be like the tree.
    Right now the thoughts and reactions are creating a huge storm. Stopping and slowing down the winds. Coming back to the breath.
    I commit myself to let go.

  • Malag

    I’d rather think in terns of an intention rather than the more pressured term, commitment. For me it is usually to notice when I am here.

  • Hot Sauce

    Today, I am committing myself to pray, do a running workout, and work on some of the exercises I am doing with my therapist to help me process some past trauma, God-willing.

  • Don Jones

    The journey of awakening. Noticing something about the familiar that I hadn’t noticed before. Looking to see as it truly is. No judgement or… story or… dross or… trivia – just notice with a child like curiosity.

  • Mica

    Pilates is the first thing – I’ve been lazy about taking care of my body’s aches and pains lately, and my weekly online class is this morning. I’m new to pilates – I signed up for it, because I don’t even need to drive to the rec center now to take it.

  • Ash

    Learning to forgive other’s mistakes, and living life to the fullest

  • KC

    Practicing being kind.

  • Debra

    Living affirmatively loving and extending that to those currently in my life and beyond.

  • Michele

    Today is my brother’s 50th and also one of my kitty’s 14th birthdays. Sending loving wishes and giving lots of attention to them. I’m also committed to finding a job:) I started my day listening to a positive affirmation meditation I love.

  • Javier Visionquest

    Having not made any specific plans today I will simply commit to learning to breathe again, all the way down into the Hara.

  • Zenith

    Picking up trash around the neighborhood. There is always something blowing around. My exercise, meditation, piano, and letters to people who will not be answering back. Watching for opportunities to pass on the positive energy flowing through me.

  • pkr

    To being kind, to myself and to All I encounter today. And to tomorrow too…….

  • Howie Geib

    To write a thousand words.

    • Howie Geib

      Completed!

      • Zenith

        What are you working on Howie?

        • Howie Geib

          Prose. Making a body of middling to longish essay pieces that will become potential components woven into a larger narrative. This piece was specific to the physical sensations of rowing in open water (something I am doing daily this summer).

  • Trish

    I commit to staying in the moment & not getting caught in the whirlwind of chaos. Wish me luck!!

  • Katrina

    Little picture – I commit myself today to cleaning my office. It’s the monster that has taken over my life. Big picture – I commit myself to continuing to find my groove in retirement – purpose, creativity, new skills, fun and joy in the midst of limitations, family relationships, building new friendships – among whom you all are some. Thank you.

  • devy

    As with each day I commit myself to welcome each day as a new one with a new starting point in my life journey
    . I commit to make the best of this, to be grateful for what it has to offer. We have only one chance for today. Once it gone, we can never go back

  • Kevin

    What might I commit myself to today? Living today fully!

  • EJP

    To be aware, to listen and to respond.
