Promises

Please keep your promises.

They mean a lot to me. And you mean a lot to me. All of you.

So please keep them.

Keep them long, keep them softly, keep them thoroughly.

Because if you do then we'll both be happier.

We'll both be safer.

We'll both be better.

A promise is more than just some words with a meaning behind them. It's a contract. If broken it breaks more than just trust. It breaks bones, people, thoughts. It hurts and stings and is hard to get over, no matter the subject of promise.
But if kept... if kept a promise can be a beautiful arrangement. It can allow growth, happiness, relaxation. Less stress flows and more smiles begin to show through the fear.

 It's cute, what kept promises can do to relationships, to people.
