Promises

A promise is an oath wherein a person enters an obligation to do or not to do something.

Promises are very easy to make. It's as simple as speaking bluntly to anyone. In fact, anyone can make a promise in just a snap of a finger.

Well that is the easy part.

Creating a promise.

Making someone believe that you will do this or won't do that.

Giving someone a reason to expect.

It's very simple to give a statement.

The hard part is fulfillment.

There is a saying that goes: "Promises and pie crusts are made to be broken" - Jonathan Swift

So why promise if you'll just break it right?

I highly disagree with that saying. If that's the true purpose of promises, then promises are a bad thing.

But that shouldn't be the definition of promise right?

When you make a promise, you should bind yourself to the responsibility that you will fulfill that promise.

Never make a promise if you're not sure that you can make it.

Also, never make a promise during happy times.

Why?

When an area is full of happiness, people within that area tend to say things that would please another. So the intention is to create more happiness during that time and not to fulfill a promise.

 Breaking a promise is like breaking someone's heart.

It's sad to say that there are very few people who keep their promises. People who treat a promise as a duty that is needed to be done and will do whatever it takes just to get a promise done for someone.

In addition to that, people sometimes fulfill a promise out of fear. Fear that THAT person will get angry at him/her.

So better be careful when you say the word "Promise" because you'll never know.

You could be already breaking someone's heart.

Remember!

Not all mistakes can be cured with the word "Sorry"
