Promises

My thoughts on "Promises". 

As early as the 12th century, when Japanese warriors lived by the code of Bushido, the way of the warrior, it was said that practictioners did not make promises, becuase the very words that came out, are a "promise" in itself. 

Thus, I am starting to turn away from making "promises" 

What is a promise? 

An obligation to deliver and the requestor feeling the need to place an obligation upon them due to the lack of trust. 

Now imagine a world where sincerity was absolute, thus making simple speech a display of integrity. 

There would be no fear, "trust" wouldn't be an issue.

It may seen idealistic, but is it really that farfetched? Is integrity and sincereity that diffficult to display? 

Think about it and just imagine...
