A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
承诺
Committed
But when I worked on a painting I would do it from a drawing but I would put certain things I was fairly sure I wanted in the painting, and then collage on the painting with printed dots or painted paper or something before I really committed it.
但是当我画一幅画的时候，我会从一幅画开始画，但是我会在画中加入一些我非常确定我想要的东西，然后用印刷的点或彩纸在画上拼贴，在我真正投入之前。
Specifically, I am concerned about the long-term condition of Social Security. I am committed to ensuring that current beneficiaries and those nearing retirement face no reduction in benefits, while preserving this vital program for future generations.

I started working professionally as soon as I could, doing weddings and things like that in high school, while everyone else was having keg parties. I just felt destined to do it and really committed and driven; it was something that just felt right all my life.
