"A promise must never be broken"

Alexander Hamilton

Reflection: A promise is when you give someone your word. A promise cannot be broken because once you promised something you can't take it back. If your not going to keep your promise then why promise something to someone when all your going to do is break that promise. If you ever break a promise then the person might end up not forgiving you or trusting you ever again. I take promises very seriously because when you promise something to me then its like your giving me your word and if you ever break a promise with me I will end up not trusting you anymore just cause you broke a promise that you made with me.
