Keep a small promise

We break ourselves with huge vows. Gym every day. Never again. A whole new year by Friday. Then we call ourselves liars and go dim.
Keep a small promise. Water. A walk. The message. The kayak you said you would take out before the light died. One kept word rebuilds a person.
Trust isn’t only what others feel toward you. It’s what you feel when you hear your own voice. If that voice starts coming true, the day gets warmer.
Don’t announce it. Do it. Then sleep. Passion without a small follow-through is only weather. Be the one who returns to the bank.
