rule of thumb.
that one should never make promises he/she cannot keep, and that words that are not meant should never be said.
because it all boils down to keeping priorities and avoiding negligence.
and because if one should ever say yes, then there is no backing out. for better, for worse, and even after everything has passed, those words cannot be taken back, and there can be no letting go.
which is why people hold back--why trusting is hard to do, and why some say they do not love--if not, then they love but do not trust.
there is nothing left but to be caged and controlled for a lifetime; oh how late that speech came.
