Day 26 - The last person you made a pinky promise to.
So before reading today's topic I was at my best friend's house. I go there so many times a week that I'm basically part of her family. When they were singing happy birthday to her dad I almost said Dad while we were singing. It's weird how someones family can make you feel so comfortable. But once we were done celebrating, we decided to go swimming. It was cold, the water was cold, but we wanted to go in anyway. I asked her if she would jump in with me but she said I would just push her in the pool. So I looked at her and stuck my pinky out, telling her I wouldn't do that. Then we jumped in holding hangs, and the water was freezing. As silly or strange as that story might sound, that's my life. I never have these intense pinky promises that are life or death situations, no one does. But when I make a pinky promise, I mean it. Especially when it comes to my best friend, it doesn't matter how big or small the promise is, I'm going to keep it. I would never purposely get someone to lose their trust in me, I would hate that. I like being able to tell someone I'm going to or not going to do something truthfully, I don't like to lie. So as stupid as this may seem, you've all been in my spot before. I'm sure once in your lifetime you've made a pinky promise to someone and even though it's just two fingers touching, it means the world to some people. It's putting all your trust with someone into the smallest action. That means a lot to be able to do that, to be able to tell someone the biggest secret you have and pinky promise and ask them to not tell anyone. You want to be able to trust your best friend, always. I didn't think I would be able to write a lot for this one, and I know I didn't really write about the person I last pinky promised because I've written about her before. I wanted to make this mostly about what a pinky promise really means, and it's not just a worthless thing that doesn't matter, it really does matter to a lot of people. So to all the future people that I will pinky promise something to remember that I don't take your trust lightly, and I would never do anything to betray you.
