I Vow...

I have been grappling with the concept of taking a vow much in my life these days. Two questions tend to dominate this thought process: 1) What does it truly mean to take a vow? 2) Do I have the will to make such a commitment and remain true to it?

These questions have taken me to research. I will share more of my findings soon, both in my material research as well as the results of my thought process, but for now I wanted to share one movement I have come across:

And I ask the questions: What is the power of making a global vow? Can this seemingly simple gesture inherently lead to action, justice and ultimately peace?
