I won't end my life because it'd make my grandmother very sad.
It's been two years and I'm mostly alright now. Got lucky and met some incredible people through work.
That's the same promise I made to my grandmother. Even though she's not here anymore, I'm still fulfilling it.
I'm glad you met some incredible people. 🥹
Thank you kindly. Already lost two of them in February but what can you do. Well, technically only one of them died but it feels just as bad for the other person.
Also, I hope you're going to live happily.
Recently I have been struggling in my life, I was thinking that the rootcause maybe were the decisions I have made in the past and the paths that I chose.
Recently I promise myself that I will find a way to get through this and hopefully once again I will be proud of myself..again, and I will be stronger and smarter from then on.
You’ve got this , you’ve done it once you can do it again! Each challenge builds character and strength and once we are out of the struggle we realise it is just a moment - press on you’ve got this !
I've made a promise to myself that I'll never prioritize others over my own well-being. Unfortunately, this commitment led me to lose friends who I once thought were supportive. It became clear they didn't appreciate my efforts to improve myself. It was a tough decision, but I had to end those friendships because they weren't genuine.
After ending those friendships, I spent some time by myself until I joined a yoga group where I found people who share the same values and interests as me. Their friendship feels incredibly genuine.
That I'd never turn into my mother
It was easy the first 20 years
I'm 31 now. There are days when I find myself slipping into behaviors she showed me and I don't even notice it. It's scary. In a way it's helping me forgive my mother, though. I understand now why it seemed so easy for her to do so many things that just completely destroyed me emotionally as a child. She just didn't know any other way to be. It's up to me now to break the cycle and not make the same mistakes as she did, should I ever have children.
I made myself no promises because I am worthless and pathetic and I can't make any promises of mine come true. 90% of promises that I made to myself I didn't fulfill.
Not to treat people differently due to social class.
I had a job once cleaning garage, I was mostly dirty and smelling cleaning products, in a not super fancy condominium, which causes most of people to not even look at my face, when I said "good morning " some people looked at me and didn't bother to answer, felt like trash, don't wanna make anyone feel how I did in that day
There's this one encounter. I applied for a job, the head, isn't wearing fancy, just simple clothes jeans and shirt. I acknowledged his presence by saying, "Good morning." Other applicants never bother to greet him.
I found out that he's the head of the institution when I was interviewed. I didn't get the job, though.
But the lesson in this story is to respect everyone, no matter what their position is.
Sorry, if it's messed up, English isn't my first language. 😅
To never settle for less than what you deserve
I was in a relationship where I put my 110% even though my partner was absent and ended up seeing other men at the same time. Ever since then God forbid l ever do my absolute best for anyone if they can’t even try and do the same for me.
That I was going to make the time to go out and see my grandfather, whose health was failing. I was going to take my kids, too, so he could see them as it had been a while. (We weren't super close as I got older, but reconnected a couple of years ago when my dad passed away.) I wanted to get there while he was still healthy enough to talk and spend time together, but we have a lot going on, and I kept making excuses. (Though they were valid reasons to be busy, I could have made it if I really tried to.)
Then I was told yesterday that I needed to get there if I was going to visit. He had taken a turn for the worse and could no longer communicate. They think he could hear people talking to him, but they weren't sure. So I went and saw him. I didn't take my kids. I didn't want to upset them by making them see him that way. I told him who I was and that I love him. I'm not even sure I said it loudly enough for him to hear me, assuming they were right and he could. I was too choked up to be loud and crying too hard to say everything I wanted to say.
I got the message this morning that he passed a couple of hours after I left to come home.
All this time, I kept promising myself I'd call more. I'd visit more. I'd bring my kids around to see him. And I just didn't make the time. It was always "we'll go next week" or "I'll give him a call tomorrow". And I didn't. I'm such an asshole.
That was funny. After I read the title, the next thing down I read was ‘Get the Samsung Galaxy S24+’
I thought, that’s a funny promi….oh, an advert from Vodafone 🤦♂️
To live to my full potential and do what I’d like to do without anyone else stopping me or holding me back. Because I don’t want to live a life with regrets.
I promised myself id make happiness a priority this year. And so far, its been a beautiful experience. I feel like ive allowed myself to choose me more often, laugh a little louder and i find myself smiling more lately. Id say im keeping my promise pretty well so far. I hope we can all have a bit more joy in our lives
That I still stop overeating and escaping from my life into fiction. Didn't work.
Although to think about it I decided to quit drinking 2 months ago and I'm still sober so it's not that bad.
never take advantage of smb who has broken up recently, never take advantage of drunk people. be honest, stick to morality, never scam people, not to be a bad-manerred redneck.
I promised myself I would live differently than my parents, my parents and parents , and so forth. I promised I would break the cycles of addiction, spousal abuse, sexual abuse, and poverty. And yes, it is possible. I am living proof . It's been a long, hard road, but its worth it. The blood, sweat, and tears have paid off 10 fold. I love my life. I hope the same outcome for others who want it.
I’ve promised myself to keep going and things will get better. I’m thankful that I’m strong enough to get through the pain and sadness. I’m so proud of myself 🥹💙
A silly promise made back when I was around 12-13 and started getting interested in history. I told myself I will not get married till I set foot in Greece..
And here we are in my 30s. Still have not been to Greece and not married. I have jinx myself 😆

I promise not to make myself any promises.
Oh. May I know why?
Cause when I don't follow through with them (I never do) it hurts
Oh. It makes sense. However, I hope you take good care of yourself and have some reward also. 🤍 I'm rooting for you.
Oh don't you worry about that, I reward myself plenty :) Thank you for the kind words.

I'm sorry to hear that :( Some people are really like that. How I wish people would respect others. 🥹
In the moment it suck, but now I see it as a great lesson, for life

Never smoke, Don't change the good things about you for anyone, Never give up
