The problem with most of our promises is that we do not intend to keep them. We say them for convenience, be it in a relationship or any other area. Promise because there is a time span between when the promise is being made and it actualization. This is plain mean and selfish but it is also human. We can’t accuse and vilify a person for being human but this is not an excuse for us to continue dishing out lies and empty promise
Someone once said that the best way not to break a promise is not to give it in the first place. Easier said than done, we find ourself in moment of emotional euphoria and when the question is popped we simply answer in affirmative. Sometimes it crueler than that we string people along, giving out false hope and aspiration knowing affirmatively that we don’t intend to honor our promise immediately we gain our hearts desire. This calculated also planned fraud is at the very least shameful and distasteful but when there is an office to be coveted, or a status to be raised this seems a small enough price to be paid.
