A BROKEN PROMISE MY PERSPECTIVE.

Today marks the last day in the month of june and i am so excited to drop my participation for this edition. It's a very good way to start the week. Special thanks to all the management crew in charge of the community. Its been a wonderful time engaging in the community with other authors.
Taking a view on the theme for the edition, a broken promise. Millions of thoughts were going on my mind and i realized I am guilty of so many things as humans.

I'm quite sure most of us might have made some promises consciously or unconsciously in one way or the other but the bottom line remains that a promise is a promise. I see promise as a commitment that one does to someone or community. Promise is not compulsory but it has to do with one's willingness to offer some freely. Promise could be seen as a vow or a commitment one does.

The big question is have i ever made a promise to someone? Hmmmm oh yes on several occasions i have made certain promises but never fulfilled them even though some of them were carelessly done without any second thought while others were deliberately. I would like to share about a promise i made just of recent even though I couldn't remember but my wife and niece reminded me. I promise to give my elder brother a solar rechargeable audio Bible.

I had the privilege to receive some copies of English new testament audio bible and i shared the news with my elder brother and he said he would need one. I thought it was just a casual thing not untill recently my wife CALLED my attention to it hence i need to pay back. I broke the promise because I couldn't fulfilled it at that time but now that i remember, I'm trying my best to get one for him. Abeg as you are reading this don't attempt to ask me for anyone ooooooo.

As a father of children, there are different occasions where i made promises to my kids but i couldn't fulfilled it but there are other ones that i intend to fulfill it after their third term Examination. Their results and positions will determine the kind of gifts they would received. Generally i have broken lots of promises i made to them.

Promise sometimes are sweet in the mouth when saying it but once it comes to the aspect of implementation hmmm it becomes a burden. I have promised some people that I am going to work out modalities to ensure that some social amenities gets to them but it spinned to almost a year thank God finally God sent an organization to come to the people's aid. Promise comes with serious commitment if you're not ready please don't create any impression.

Are there valid reasons to break a promise? It depends on individuals sha because we all have different ways we approach things. There are people that can justify every of their acclaimed actions whereas others can't like me. Don't promise what you can't easily fulfill. Don't create an email impression of what you are not. Sometimes character or someone's life style could lead to a broken promise

Thanks so much for reading through this post.
