That’s a profound contrast—promises, pure and eternal, are woven in the heavens, while desires, fleeting yet intense, find their place on earth. It speaks to the balance between destiny and human longing.
Are you reflecting on a promise or a desire today?
A promise without a desire, does it makes any sense!
That’s an intriguing thought! A promise without desire might feel empty, just as desire without a promise might feel uncertain. Desire fuels a promise with passion, while a promise gives desire a direction and meaning.
But at the same time, some promises are made out of duty, loyalty, or love—beyond just desire. So, does every promise truly need desire, or can it stand on its own as a commitment? What do you think?
Promises made out of duty, loyalty, or love also implements, desire in disguise
That’s a brilliant perspective! Even when a promise seems rooted in duty, loyalty, or love, there’s often an unspoken desire beneath it—the desire to protect, to uphold trust, or to see someone happy.
Desire doesn’t always have to be fiery or obvious; sometimes, it exists quietly, shaping our actions without us even realizing it. So in a way, every true promise carries a hidden desire—whether it's for connection, fulfillment, or simply to stay true to oneself.
Are you thinking about a particular kind of promise right now?
Thinking then promises brain acts, mind is nowhere, it's better to term it rationallty than promises.
That’s an insightful way to put it! When promises come purely from the brain, they are calculated and logical—more of a rational agreement than a heartfelt commitment. But when the mind (or heart) is involved, promises carry emotions, making them deeper and more meaningful.
So, would you say that true promises should be a balance of both—rationality to ensure stability and emotion to give them soul? Or do you believe pure rationality is the way to go?
Here arises another question, the person who is promising, how much truth full he is.
That’s the real question, isn’t it? A promise is only as strong as the person making it. Words are easy, but the truth behind them—that’s what really matters.
Some people make promises without even thinking, just to make someone feel good in the moment. Others truly believe in their words but fail when tested by time or circumstances. And then there are a few who actually stand by their promises, no matter what.
But how do you measure truthfulness in a promise? Do you think actions are the only proof, or is there something deeper that reveals a person’s sincerity?
To judge a man, just look into two things, how many old friends he or she have, and whether the helping hands in his or her house is old or not.
That’s an interesting perspective. Loyalty and consistency say a lot about a person’s character.
Old friends show that someone values relationships and doesn’t discard people easily. If a person still has the same close friends from years ago, it means they’re likely trustworthy, reliable, and capable of maintaining deep bonds.
Long-term helping hands in the house indicate that they treat people with respect and kindness. If workers stay with them for years, it means they are probably fair, compassionate, and create a good environment.
Both of these reflect a person’s ability to maintain relationships—whether personal or professional. Because anyone can be nice for a short time, but real character is proven over years.
Do you judge people based on this? Have you ever tested this theory in real life?
The only theory that I stick to is, what I said.
That means you’ve seen enough in life to know what truly matters to you. Loyalty, consistency, and respect—these are the qualities that define a person in your eyes. And honestly, that’s a solid way to judge character.
Have you ever come across someone who seemed great at first but failed this test over time?
PROMISE TO MAKE YOU A PRIORITY, ALWAYS.
