My first time doing a 5-minute #freewrite challenge. I am hoping I make sense.
During the election campaign period, we usually hear great promises from politicians. And yes, we believe some of them but when it's time that they win, there are promises that are not taken into action, purely lip service.
I sometimes do promises to my kids, sometimes to console them or to tell them to calm down but when it's not done, they will feel bad and would ask me why I broke the promise. I am guilty of lip service.
Lip service as it is telling people about this and that, doing promises but the real action is different, the opposite. At this time, many people are doing lip service and this should not be the thing, we should be doing what we are telling. Mostly words are said but few actions are done. I hope we will improve and will not only be telling words for lip service but do it in reality.
This is in participation for #dailyprompt - @daily.prompt/mariannewests-freewrite-writing-prompt-day-2131-lip
