A Promise

“A promise must never be broken”

Alexander Hamilton

    This quote means that once you promise to keep a promise, it is then to never be broken. Promises are a big deal because people are able to trust and rely on you and you know that you will always be there for them. When you break a promise you show that you are a fake and untrustworthy person. Promises are to never be broken because it could affect the people around you and it is not easy to forgive someone who they trusted and ended turning their back on them. Keeping a promise could be hard though because it depends on whether it is something very hard to hide if it’s wrong or right. For example, when you promise your friend that you were going to go with them to a school event with, you should be a responsible friend and go with them and keep your promise because once you promise to do something you have to do it. If you don’t keep the promise and leave your friend hanging then, that makes you a person that they know they can’t count on. Always keep your promises because that shows how true you are and it shows others that they can always count on you no matter what.
