Expressing Feelings of Remorse

It is not too late to say you are sorry. Many times, we realize we have done something not cool, but we don't know how to "fix" it.


I believe it is important to apologize for our wrongs. Even if it is not well received, at least you have tried to apologize.


It is a good way to provide closure to both parties. It is also the road that leads to forgiveness. Whether the other person forgives you or not, you are now able to forgive yourself.


The apology may look like:


"I am sorry I let you down when you needed me."


"I made a mistake, I am sorry."


"I know what i said and did was wrong. Please forgive me."


"I know in the past I have not listened to you. I apologize. Going forward I will pay attention when you speak."


"What I have done to you was not right. I understand if you cannot forgive me, but I wanted to let you know I am truly sorry."


**An apology without change of action is void. If you are not changing bad behaviors, you are not truly sorry.
