Of Promises and Expectations

Promises - we give them away too freely. Some people give it away in order to lock down your loyalty, commitement, time, person.

But what have we actually obtained? A mere expectation. That hope that one day this promise might be made real.

"Stay, we'll give you a raise."

"I'll definately want to make you my wife/husband/family."

"Do me this favour, I'll make it up to you."

When is enough enough?

When do we take into account this factor of time and realise that its best to cut our losses?

Promises, make it and keep it.
