Do We Commit or Receive and Leave?

Entry 2, "I'm really starting to wonder if people understand what being committed to something really means. I think that people tend to commit to being a part of something for the feelings they get out of the place at the time they decide to commit...it becomes more about what they can get out of it than what they can give to it, and that's just unfortunate. I've noticed then that things tend run their course, and said "committed" people are no longer getting the perfect "about me" feeling factor out of it, they generally head to where the grass is greener on the other side instead of digging in their heals and making the place they already are the place they want it to be. The sad part is, they generally don't think about how this will affect others around them and how that, at some point, the place they went to will ultimately have the same issues as the place they left, because again, they aren't putting into it, they are only getting out of it, and you can only get out for so long before you ultimately have to give or get out. It truly saddens me."
