Sometimes,
promises can make people happy. They feel special and loved. What's in their
mind when they hear your promises? it is assurance, that no matter what will
happen, you will do what you said and they will count on it. Sometimes, when
there is a favor, it is much better to say maybe than to say yes, you know why?
Because maybe is not as sure so if you fail to do what you said, they won't be
so disappointed. If you say yes, it is a promise to do and if you miss to
do it, they will feel an extreme disappointment.
Lots of things
might be the fruit of promises. It can build trust but it can also ruin a life.
Why I am telling this? Because I want you to know how big is the impact of
making promises in your life.
I admit, I
made promises for several times and for many times I also failed to do it, especially
to my friends. Still they trust me but not like as the past. I thought it was
no big deal. It was just a promise and it may be broken. That's what a promise
is, might not be granted. My friends never told me about what they feel of untruthful
deeds, but I can feel it, they changed in me. They treat me different and it is
not a good feeling. So now I realize, things may change even with a single
promise. As what I have said, it can build trust but it can also ruin
relationships such as friendships the worst it can ruin your whole life.
Remember, trust is
not easy to get but can be broke with just a wink. So be mindful of your
actions in uttering words. And be responsible in making decisions.
