It takes courage to tell someone you are sorry and admit to making a mistake. It also takes courage to ask for forgiveness after offending someone or making a mistake. But the release of regret and sometimes self-loathing, that comes when one is able to admit and then make the needed amends, can be so refreshing and relieving. It makes me wonder, why don't we free ourselves of the uncomfortable feelings following a verbal mistake more often? Answer: We are human and are so often afraid to appear vulnerable. But...we can change that habit. Takes some discipline and courage, but it is wonderfully possible!
Thanks for listening!
