When Promises Were Made Out Of Thin Air

Every being is capable of making promises. Whether it is to our family, friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, aunty, uncle or even our pet dog, promises used to hold on to something so crucial and vital that one would bet his or her life trying to fulfill it. It maybe a simple promise to get the chores done, or promise to protect someone, fulfilling the promise was something so great that it influences the integrity of a person.

Nowadays, the word promise means giving someone hope, and you hoping that the person forgets what you promised them. Sad to say i am one of those person in a particular way. I always forget what i promised. And its so embarrassing sometimes. One of my major flaws is promising time. Time is something so cheap yet expensive. Its priceless but once its gone you never get it back. Unless i live by a clock, being able to keep up with time is something seemingly impossible to me.

i promise to wake up by 9 to start my assignment/ attend exam/ do chores/ etc, i woke up at 11 the next day feeling like a complete failure/ disappointed.

People do use the word promise like some form of space filler like the word "errr". Its one of those condiments in a sentence which gives hope, enlightens someone heart.

Example: I might bring you out on a date

I PROMISE to bring you out on a date.

Refering to the sentence above, do you spot the difference?

So the moral of the story is, hold on to your promise, never give false promise and hope.
