Julia a friend of mine who helped me recover from an illness said the same as you, sometimes you have to selfish to survive. Great poem.10+ added to my poems list. Thank you.

No. I can not/keep to my promise....we are human beings, many times we fail to keep our promise but if anyone can keep it, that's great as it is said: if you want to keep, keep your promise! An excellent work....10
We are eager to keep our promises! But when the time comes, we fail to keep them. We have several reasons to falter in our decisions. It is human nature!

We are all guilty as charged. Failure to keep a promise. This is the human condition.
Sometimes one does have to think twice and be able to reconsider what was too quickly promised to.
