Our contemporaries have put all their words on paper. The same thing happened with the word of honor. To say "my word of honor" or "my word of honor" today is to say nothing. Do we ourselves want to return its value to the word?


There was such a case in my life. I gave my friend my word of honor that at five o'clock I would be near the theater, where the performance was to take place. As a sin, just when I was about to leave, my dad called and invited me to a cafe. Of course, I could not refuse my dad, which I did. And my friend stood waiting for me on the street and was very cold. During the week I visited a sick friend, but she could not completely forgive me for my dishonesty.

Betrayal is not big or small, because it is treason. Not having once said his word, a person takes a shaky road. His whole life can pass in the incessant betrayal of himself and other people. To avoid this, I will advise you one thing: try to keep promises, whatever the cost. “Having said this word, be his master,” says folk wisdom.
