Honor. Friends. Family.
I'm a simple person. Don't do anything that disgraces yourself, your friends or your family. Stick by this simple rule and everything will simply be fine! But there's always that one person who does something so fucking stupid or even worse, pokes his/her nose into matters that don't concern them. If that isn't bad enough, they fuck up so badly, they actually cause people more frustration and pain than be a help. And that brings me to my two topics of the day. My first topic of this post is,
Lies.
Alright, I'll be honest. I'm no saint. And I have lied. IN FACT! I would say that everyone has lied AT LEAST once in their lifetime. The one who says he/she has never told a lie is the greatest liar of them all. This is a fact. And I think we are all aware of that. But dislike being lied to. I dislike liars. And this includes myself. YES. I don't hate people. I just have a slight dislike for them. Because it's hard to tell what's the difference when some is telling the truth and when someone is telling a lie. Or so you think. It's simple to tell if someone is lying. But to see through a lie, we have to be sharp. Watch the person's body language. Let's have a simple scenario. Say, you're talking to your best friend. And you ask that friend about an item that you've lent him. However, he/she lost it and out of panic, the person says "Someone stole it!" or "Oh. It slipped my mind. I'll return to you next time we meet."
Wow. Genius. But like the wise men say. It takes a bigger lie to cover another. So as the days pass, your friend tries harder and harder to cover up his/her act and at some point, the excuse given is just completely ridiculous. And at this point, all hell breaks loose, the friendship turns sour and enmity is born. Why? It all started with a lie. Amazing, isn't it? What could have prevented this situation? If he/she simply told the TRUTH. Let's face it. Lying is wrong. Even if it's a white lie. And we all lie. But it doesn't mean can't STOP lying. After all, the ability to adapt and change is what makes us human right?
My second topic is something I have always esteemed. It's something we make. And we either keep it or forget it. If you're smarter than a monkey, you would've figured out what my second topic was gonna be. If you haven't, you're in need of some serious medical attention. Alright, enough sidetracking. My second topic for the day. Or night, as it seems is
Promises.
Well, you're probably wondering why I esteem promises. Simple. Because it's the ONLY oral contract(in a sense) that humans either fulfill or forget. Since an incident about five(?) months ago, I have tried to keep the promises I make. I sound like a hypocrite since I know damn well I never really bothered back then. But if you can read. The keyword here is, "back then". But you all know it right? I hope so. Anyway, personally, I make promises to people I care about or love. As long as they mean something to me or play a big role in my life. If I promise to do something, I will do my best to fulfill it. No matter what. I have to honor my promise. If you ask me, I would say that it's a.. Life's resolution?
The promises that mean a lot to me are made through one way only. Maybe some might find the phrase familiar because I've said it quite a few times. My one and only contract that I will keep, even if my life depended on it. Pinky Promise. Why, you might be wondering? A pinky promise is made by those of close relations and of much importance. I've made 3 pinky promises through my seventeen years of life and I'm still keeping them. If you're reading this and you're wondering about it or if I still remember, yeah. I still remember. And I still am keeping them. Something I have learned with the passing of time, is this.
Promises are n e v e r broken. Just.. F.o.r.g.o.t.t.e.n..
