Take responsibility for the choices youve made.

Weve done something hurtful and someone has done something unkind to us.

It happens daily, with varying levels of impact.

Thats life, in its horror and its splendor!

Has it ever been easy?

I dont think so.

And boy do I have a go at believe that it hasnt been easy for you, too.

You dont want to acknowledge the bad stuff; you dont want to admit your faults.

Perhaps you have a difficult time emotionally and it still cuts you deep in ways I cant possibly imagine.

Even though you were the one who messed up.

And it still affects you whenever you think about it.

I wonder if you want to apologize, but you dont know how.

If thats the case, now is the time to do it.

Trying to keep things light-hearted wont help either.

I know you may not know how to apologize.

Ive been in your position, when I didnt know how to say sorry.

You just do it from the heart.

Its as simple as that.

Dont make excuses for yourself or venture to manipulate another persons feelings.

Dont blame your troubles on God or fate or timing.

If you feel youve wronged someone in some way, it isnt hard to apologize.

Thats all it takes.

Youre not over it?

You havent dealt with those emotions yet?

Stop avoiding; stop stalling.

Its time to get over it and to move forward.

If I can do it, you’ve got the option to certainly do it, too.

Stop repressing your feelings.

it’s possible for you to move past it.

Theres a new beginning on the other side of this.

You have to face the past so you can heal.

It takes strength to say Im sorry, and it takes even more strength to forgive.

How strong are you?

I dont always have the words to express how I feel.

Sometimes actions are better than anything you could possibly say.

Ease into it with just these two words.
