You are right my friend. Commitment is becoming an endangered species as so much has become disposable. How we want it from others, yet fall short to provide it. I love the term steadfast. I am reminded of folks who would dedicate their lives and love to one trade. They became masters in their profession. Today, people move from employer to employer, sadly, without adopting that master quality. As for me, I have been a piano man all my life. I understand the concept.
We love double standards that fall in our favor.
"steadfast" is indeed a good term! Not used to often these days, at least since I am living in a non- English speaking country. It is a wonder I have a vocabulary at all.
Many think mastership is getting a degree at university.
