Thinking about things. Promises. People making plans, all of which fall apart . . . relying on each other and getting dropped . . . believing in each other, and finding that belief unfounded.
I've made a lot of promises to people, and kept nearly all of them. Conversely, a lot of people have promised me things . . . and a lot of them have been broken.
I still don't know which is more right. I still don't know which is better.
