"Never break four things in your life, Trust, Promise, Relations and Heart because when they break, they make no noise but pains a lot." -Charles.
When you smash a glass against something, you will hear the sound shattering through the room, when you break a bottle or you crash a screen or mug or anything else, you hear the sound as well. The broken bottle, or plates or that big bang probably just cause some financial pain and since it can be mostly handled, we live with them.
But these four things never make any sound and why?
Trust, Promise, Relations and Heart have got be the most painful stuffs anyone will be caught loosing because they form the fabric of our humanity.
Let me explain.
- Trust. Have you considered what will happen if the man withdraws his hands and lets the kid come crashing down? Oouch!
Imagine if the man allows that kid to come crashing down, will he ever trust anyone to catch him or her when next he is being thrilled like that ever again? Well, I wouldn't trust.
Trust is defined as the firm belief in the ability, reliability and truth of someone or something.
We all seek to be assured beyond all doubts at the ability of someone or some stuffs like the society or system to always have our backs. When these bodies fail us, we are never to be caught pants down trusting them again.
I for one, have lost all faith and trust in the society I live because, it has over and over again left me crashing down every time I believed it will catch me from falling.
- Promise. To promise someone something means to be indebted to them until you fulfill that promise. Some would say, "a promise is a debt."
Promise means, "a declaration assuring that one will or will not do something." That is pretty hard because, we all have been guilty of this one sin and we have all ended up delivering failed promises.
When you promise someone something and you fail them, they may not physically hurt, but emotionally, you have made them to loose faith in you because your commitment to them has been broken.
Assurances are meant to be well covering and pleasing to the eyes and mind and when there is none, to hold on to, we feel the pains because someone failed to keep their promises.
I have made some promises in the past that I didn't quite deliver on and for that, I am sorry!
Then, I am not happy at the promises made by the government, they come every election period to daze us with some juicy promises only to knock us out with truck loads of disappointments.
- Relations. I love you has got to be the most deceitful word used in this life.
We all tend to be be loved and then we make the most horrible mistakes and commit sins against those we say we are in relationships with. We never take timeout to treat the relations we have with the utmost care and love. As creatures created to live and coexist, we are selfish and self centered.
The battle for self has always won over the battle for us all.
Loving self is important, but many fail to understand that loving self for the benefit of the world is what counts. Breaking a relationship commitment hurts like hell and can only bring you down when it happens.
Relations means "a logical or natural association between two or more things; relevance of one to another."
Relevance of one to another tells it all and it points at the exactness of the connection formed through that relation.
Have you broken a relation with someone by means of being selfish or did it just happen by no fault of yours?
I believe it is mostly because we are selfish and never considerate of others when we are in a relationship that we end up hurting others.
Growing up has its own special kind of treatment towards relationship creation and management and..., guess I have to say I am sorry to those people whom I hurt at one point or the other.
- Heart. This is the most volatile of it all.
The heart plays pivotal role in the way we do and handle affairs as it concerns us. The heart points us in the right or wrong directions and when we fail to follow through with the supposed path, we either are forced to cry because we need to or we cry out loud because we had no idea what crying means.
The heart of a man has in it everything you need to make for the right or wrong decisions; and because we are mostly programmed for the harsh realities of living, making wrong decisions has become the order of our day.
Heart "is that muscular organ in most animals and humans, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system."
Give in to doing some good when you can and do not go breaking my heart. The heart wants what it wants.
We are never truly humans until we have caused someone to feel love or pain. I mostly want to cause you to feel love, because for the better part of my life, I have caused more pain than joy. This time now is for LOVE and I am infusing the love node into every aspect of living.
Do not knowingly break a Trust, a Promise, a Relation and or a Heart; because though they break silently, they hurt the most and longer.
