it's not easy keeping a promise.
i've learned that the hard way;
lots of times.
to some, keeping a promise is simply a matter of persistence.
you make the promise,
you stick with it
no matter the outcome
this is always a good way to write conflict into a heartbreaking drama
or create a hillarious set-up for a shallow comedy
but it's a terrible way to live your life.
see, the trick is not learning to keep a promise
any soul-less machine can do that
the real life lesson
is learning to make only the few promises
that really matter
