As reminded a few days ago, I promised to upload a video of me cutting my own hair with the Comb \u2018n Cut. I have not forgotten. I\u2019ll try to make some time tomorrow to edit what I currently have (so you won\u2019t have to watch 10 minutes of me cutting with no comments in real time) and maybe record a short epilogue (as the video currently cuts off rather abruptly).<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t make promises that often, because I feel terrible when I break them. The word carries with it such heavy connotation that it\u2019s hard not to think of all the weight I put onto myself when I make a promise.<\/p>\n
While there\u2019s no physical or material loss for breaking a promise, I always assume that a broken promise (no matter how big the promise is or how it was broken) will result in a loss of trust that will be hard to regain.<\/p>\n
Maybe that isn\u2019t true. Maybe people don\u2019t take the idea of promises as grandly as I do. Still, words are important. A firm handshake, a promise, a sincere glance. All of these may not hold up legally in court, but they hold up in my <\/em>court.<\/p>\n My honor court.
