Promise

I don't Ike promises: Someone can have the best intentions, but life changes, routes change, crisis can happen, even the length of life is unknown Unexpected things can lead a person to change mind A promise has emphasis,; counted on with heart, mind and soul, then suddenly broken into pieces, breaking it all Hurting with a dagger of mistrust that lasts So please do not make a promise to me It's not fair to do, when you can't be certain it's true Heidi Sands 5/3/25 (C)opyright

Promises are ultra serious! Today people break them and at what cost!

That's true Heidi broken promises can affect people in a very negative way...if its circumstances that's fine but when its no intention really in the first place that's wrong! We have suffered it in our lifetime at some stage. Debx

Good point. Yet anything can break that too. Loss of life , unforseen circumstances. I guess I see vowd a bit different than a daily general promise? :)

Yes , that did happen once. Then it got me thinking, there is no guarantee people can keep promise they say. Anything in life can happen or interfere. Thank you. Hugs :)
