In the human
history, it’s never been easy to apologize first. Especially when we think that
it’s just a simple matter. When we start the move by apologizing first, it doesn’t
mean that we lose. It’s never about losing or winning anyway. It’s about
whether our relationship with that person worth or not. If it does matter more
than our pride to say ‘sorry’, let’s just admit that we’re wrong. Say sorry and
think of how to remedy the situation.
Saying sorry is one
thing. Forgiving someone is another thing. What if we’re the victim and someone
owe us an apology? What if someone has ripped our heart years ago that we
cannot even leave it behind? Be it our best friends, be it our parents or our
ex-lover. Let’s learn how to forgive. Perhaps, if we were on their position at
that time, we would have done the same thing. We’re all humans. Humans make
mistakes.
Let go of that
grudge, you deserve peacefulness in your heart. You deserve to be happy with
your presents and future. Most importantly, learn to give that apology to
yourself and forgive your past mistakes.
“Be kind to one
another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you” –
Ephesians 4:32
Question to
yourself:
1.
Is
there any mistake you made that you couldn’t even forgive yourself?
2.
Is
it hard for you to say an apology?
