Sorry - a simple word yet difficult to say

SORRY

Such a simple word but for a couple of persons such word is difficult to say. Why? Their pride is so high that they could not stoop down or just humbly admit that they are at fault.

Before, parents would never say sorry to heir respective child. Reason: that they are parents, they are older and wiser they should not say sorry to their children. Even in this modern time, we sometimes encounter such parents. But experts found out that when parents at fault learn how to say sorry to their child or children, the end result is that such children has better personality, healthy thinking and would care more.

Hurting words and actions would scratch deep into our hearts but when somebody say sorry whole heartedly the hurt will be lessen or may be extinguished and forgiveness comes next.

No matter how educated we are, what race we belong, or what status, gender and age we are, we are all made in dust and imperfect. We must admit and humbly accept we sometimes fall short or may hurt somebody.

Difficult may it be but when we practice it constantly and internalized our thinking, Sorry may come easily and whole heartedly.

Gee, sorry can be hard to say sometimes, but it also shouldn't be overused. Once I knew a friend who always apologised, saying "sorry" so many times that I thought "sorry" no longer has a value to her anymore. =P
