New post about apologizing and forgiveness, "Apologizing Sucks.: We all have room to grow if we allow ourselves the chance."
Today, I had to write another note to apologize for my actions. Lovingly called in by a friend, I put on my big people clothes and apologized.
Letβs be clear. Apologizing sucks.
I hope my note was genuinely repentant, devoid of excuses, and absent of transactionalism, but we shall see. We are all works in progress.
After I hit send, I went back to the Kindness and Forgiveness chapter of In Defense of Kindness to see if I had practiced what I had written. I think I did okay. Below is that chapter if you, like I do, need and occasional reminder of the power and importance of apologizing.
