<p>OK I'm going to give this a go. I have reached a point in my life where I'm not sure who I am or where I go next. I need to find out a bit about me so maybe this is the answer. I'm ready to bare my soul to the world safe in the knowledge that if you are bored you can switch it off. Kind of like a confession or a letter to God.</p><p>PROMISES </p><p>I was having a long hot bath this morning and I got to thinking about promises. Promises big, promises small, promises kept, promises broken. Promise the Earth Promise the Universe. </p><p>I guess I have made two major promises in my life. The first was my marriage vows about 20 years ago. I stood in church I made that promise in front of the whole world. the second (and I know you will smile) My Scout promise I made it in front of my kids my friends and I renew it every year.</p><p>Well I am guessing we all now the wedding vows but for those of you unfamiliar here is the Scout Promise</p><p>On my honour, I promise that I will do my best, To Do my duty to God and to The Queen, To help other people and to keep the Scout Law.</p><p>So which of these would you think would be the lasting promise? The marriage vows of course - WRONG. Why would that be? Maybe they are asking too much of us maybe it is too much too expect that till death do us part. I would not have broken hat vow for anything until my other half did. He found a new lady and moved out. Now I should have been heartbroken but I wasn't - I was overjoyed that promise I made as a girl had just become an onerous burden to carry. A chore in my life.</p><p>My scout promise I can renew that with an honest heart every year. Yes I can promise to do my best, I know full well that my best often falls short of the mark. It is a promise for Queen and Country it makes me proud to be aprt of something so big and so needed in this world.</p><p>So PROMISES. It hurts to break a promise. I think I will be careful what I promise in the future and I will definitely try not to make promises I can't keep. Thats not a promise mind you!!! <img src="http://www.wocchat.com/file/smile/wink.gif" mce_src="http://www.wocchat.com/file/smile/wink.gif" alt="" phpfox="image-protect"></p><p>Hey this could work.Finally someone I can talk drivel to without boring the pants off them.
