A Promise



‘I pledge that’… ‘this is my oath’… ‘I vow’… ‘you have my word of honour’.

Why do we use such sophisticated words and try to convince someone that we are actually going to live up to it.

Why try to fake it and give false hope.

People will understand and appreciate it better if you genuinely tell them the truth.
Simply admit, ‘I’m sorry, but I can’t do this’.
BUT, that does not mean you don’t try at all. Do your best and who knows, you might even succeed and God might assist with his divine powers if your intentions are honest.

Giving false hope to someone is similar to backstabbing them.

Why does breaking a promise give us a feeling of betrayal?

Well, first off, you break someone’s hope and at the same time, you risk your own reputation.

Honestly, tell me? Do you want to be known as a “promise-breaker”?

A promise is the symbol of your trustworthiness.

It is the thin and frail road on which we all tread to develop a good relationship.

A light blow can break this very road instantly and many a times, it is a no-return from that point.

The global and general definition of a promise is: ‘A declaration or assurance that one will do something’.

So, I request everyone and urge you to forever remember, take care of this brittle and fragile jewel and please do not use it for selfish reasons and in the process, hurt anyone’s feelings. 

Let’s weigh our words well before we utter them.

Blooms of Heaven

Flowers are synonymous of happy lives. Have you ever noticed, what ladies in happy couples are mostly offered. Indeed! Flowers. Why? Simple, it brings happiness. The joy of having nature’s beauties in your hand is enough to leave you grinning from one ear to another. Their scents, the vivid colours, shape, features, all of these, combine to define a flower. Flowers are of various colours like white, purple, blue, yellow, and then, there are absolute unique ones too. Look at what all flowers have inspired us to. The obvious one is Spring’s latest fashion mode. Dresses, shirts, shorts, handbags, belts, hairband, cutlery, drapes, etc. Floral impact leaves no item untouched. Life without flowers would be like life without oxygen. That statement is basically true, since, plants do produce oxygen! I wonder if it has been proven or not, flowers might be present everywhere, even in the aridest desert, we find a little bloom on the biggest giant spine, the cactus. Flowers ...

Generosity

“Give more than you wish to, and you shall receive double in return”.  “The hand that gives is better than the hand that asks” . Don’t we often hear our elders preaching us such good habits since our toddlerhood? This is the virtue of generosity! Generosity is a feature that has been granted to both humans as well as animals. It reflects a kind heart. Some people might be generous from a tender age, while some might not have developed that feeling. But this a feeling that needs to be encouraged in children right at a tender age. Initially, specially, as a child, we are forced to give something and that does not make us happy. If you ask children kindly, they would be more than willing to give to you and that is such a cute act.     However the request made has got to be reasonable of course! No one has ever become poor by being generous. Instead, our value increases immensely! People respect and appreciate us.  A simpl...

Chirpy Chirpy Cheeps

Birds, are they immaterial to us? Or do they bring significance to our lives? Birds, an important factor in everyone's life, can make even the grumpiest person on earth twitch a smile. They have a distinctive feature that makes them unique compared to any other species. What female hawks can do to keep their children protected is enormous, a bit what our own mothers would do for us...hmmm The amazingly-colored birds brighten up places. No wonder, the very thought of Amazon forest displays an array of colourful fowls to our imagination. Hearing their cheerful chirps make time peaceful, oh! but then, we also have the croaked-voice crow. Their adorable body structures, their wonderful techniques of making people happy are astounding. Some even say that they are used as therapy for young children who have speech problems. What a blessing God sent us! Singing and chirping have always been the characteristics of birds. This is what defines them and distinguish them ...
