Promises are like theories. They can never be right and only lasts till the day they are broken. It takes everything to proof their existence and yet only a few anomalies to tear them apart.

With such unfavorable terms, one might wonder why did we even bother to make them. Why go through all the effort just for them to be broken someday, by someone?

Could it be their justification of the world? Justify things we see, things we hear, things we touch, things we do. Perhaps without them we can no longer understand ourselves, we can't explain why we see, hear, touch or do things.

Maybe they're necessary to prevent our mental world from collapsing, to tell us life still has meaning, reason to live for.

Even if its all of the wrong meaning, wrong reasons.

Because the truth is, we can't live without them. And every day we think up of new ones, create new cages to trap our minds in sanity. Because its necessary. Or at least I'll like to believe that.
