Never promise what you cannot fulfill
Promises are easier said than fulfilled. most times we use the word - "I promise" carelessly. We are humans and most times bound to make mistakes or default, but we have to be careful when it comes to making promises to others. Never promise someone that you will give them heaven and earth when you are not God. Don't even promise what you don't have. Do things you know that you can actually fulfill so that people don't hold anything against you. The most common trend among teenagers is telling people you love them and promising to probably marry them or do all sort of things for them all in the name of love, then at the end of the day it is all based on lies. Love is a beautiful thing no doubt but when it comes to promises be careful and mind how you thread into other people's heart to avoid hurting their feelings. You are still an undergraduate in school probably and already promising your fellow classmates to marry them when you are just daddy's boy or mummy's daughter. Such promises don't hold water...

Exactly, people always make fake promises but when the right time will come. They are gone. No one fulfill your promise.
It is not right at all
So true 👍 and in my religion it's a sin to promise someone about something then can't fulfill it
That's very True and I totally agree with you
Yes thanks 😅
This is so true. People make promises but does not fullfill it. This is usually what makes us disappointed. Please, if we make promises let us try to do our very best to fulfill it because if not, then do not make a promise at all.
Thanks for adding voice to this
You're welcome😊
All you have is your word.
That's true no doubts
I hate promising without having the answers at hands. It's not because I'm afraid of commitment, I just don't want to make a promise until I'm sure I can fulfill .It’s better to say what you mean, and mean what you say. I have friends that struggle with saying no to a customer, or no to people in general. They don’t want to disappoint someone, so they agree to things they have no way of fulfilling. A lot of people like to say yes to everything because they want to help people. They genuinely care, but the problem is they’re people pleasers and by making promises they can’t keep, end up hurting themselves in the long run.
That is why action speaks louder than words. ☺
Indeed action speak louder than words
Promising ourselves that we are going to have a successful future is our way to be motivated and study hard. "Promises are meant to fulfill", said of the Priest, in our church. I you said your promise, you are responsible on doing it, because if you did not? It may disappoints the one you gave it. So we should be responsible in every word we say, it may not be important to you but to the one who you talk? It's really is.
You have said it all my dear
Thank youuu
Promises are made to be fullfilled not to be broken. But sometimes due to an unexpected and unwanted circumstances we tend to break our promises resulting it to hurt someone we cared for. Youths nowadays making promises only bcoz they are driven of their emotions towards a person,i dont think they were actually lying in that moment they were making such promises to the one they love but once that emotions gotten weaker the will to fullfill of that promise gotten weaker too resulting it to be a broken promise. So we should not make a promise only base in our emotion but base it in our own will.
I Love your points here, really they are valid
Your right. As saying goes "PROMISE ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN". AND this is really true we always say that but always end up nothing. We are human and we are not perfect but we can be honest right? We don't need to say Promise and be honest to our self that we will failed again.
As much as we are Humans, we don't have to promise what we can't keep
Near the Qayamat people would not take care of their promises.they promise but fullfill them.Also a saying of Hazrat Ali R.A in happiness you should not promise any one.
That's very true, the hall mark is , never promise what you are not sure of
You don't need promises to prove you love to someone. You only need to show it. Make her/him feel your love. Prove it through actions not through words. :)
This is absolutely correct
Like all they said promises are meant to be broken:) Thanks for sharing this article.
Promises are meant to be fulfilled, not to be broken. That's why I am very careful stating promises to other people because it may lead to misunderstanding and disappointments.
Thanks for your lovely thoughts here
Very true what you say, we should not promise something that we do not intend to fulfill. We must always honor our word, in these times it is a very valuable and rare quality to achieve.
There is honor in keeping to our words
yep you are right . If we make promises we have to fulfill them. And never breaks promises . Cause promises are the tree of trust,. And some relationship is fading away because of less trust.
I love the way you said it here. Thanks for the lovely contribution
Exactly!Promise are meant to be broken if the person who promised was not sincere to his/her words.Sometimes its hard to believe to promises because we are not sure if they can really do it for us.Dont expect too much because in the end we will just be in pain because of those promises
You have valid points here...I appreciate your contribution on this
Yes brother you are right. We need more careful before given anyone promise. Befrore Given promise to anyone make sure that you are available to complete it otherwise i think tell him or her that you cant not do it. I think It's better to given anyone hart after uncomplicated the promise.
true
