Everyone takes some kind of oath. Marriages, Pledges, certain job positions,membership of organizations (gangs), and government courts. While being a member of Kappa Alpha Psi, I have taken oaths that I stand by highly. I promise to work hard for my fraternity for the rest of my life. I knew that I was making a life long commitment during my initiation process and that is why my fraternity is so special to me. Many are very dishonest about the oaths they make. Witnesses in court has to pledge a oath before confession, and at times people lie all the time.

I'm not sure what we are suppose to talk about in this blog besides the word "Oath", But I believe a oath should be very important to an individual. An Oath is your word, and most of the time that's all you have. At God's witness.
