It is easy to make a promise as words spoken can be done lightly; but difficult to uphold and keep. Promise what you can keep and do, not what you will not be able to keep and do.
A promise is a sacred vow to keep your word.
When you keep a promise, you are being true to yourself; you have worth and support the people that are dear to you. Keeping your promises will attract others to you as well as you will be known to your friends as one that is sincere and trustworthy.
This is the kind of friend we all wish we had and are few and far between.
