How many promises have you failed to keep? Have you repented from them or just brushing them off?
Incase you have forgotten someone was depending on you. You owe them an apology.
Do not make false promises to others you are not willing to keep. All it does is cause stress to the person you promised. Be accountable.
There is a big difference of something major coming up in your life and having to cancel, than telling someone because you want to be a people pleaser at the moment, you are willing to help, and when it is time to connect with that person, you disregard what you need to do or what you had promised to do for them.
Everyone is busy, we all live busy lives. Now on, make a promise to your self that you will be accountable for what you promise others. If you know that you cannot follow through, tell them this is just not a good time.
People would be more pleased with you being honest than not following through. Try it! I bet you will be less stressed!
"I’m Ms. Alberts Goddaughter, my Grandmother and Mrs. Albert were best friends and neighbors. I met my Godsister Roberta after my Godmother passed away and because of the video the two of them made, I went on to be a first responder for the flood victims in Atlanta. My Sis, as I fondly call Roberta is the REAL THING, thank you"
