Hi lovely hivers,
This is my entry in response to the theme of week 53 edition one which is life transforming and touching for me. I think this is a timely topic that I can't afford not to share some of my experiences in this light.
I was super excited when I stumbled on this subject and immediately started thinking on how to share. I believe the little I will dish out might help and give a quantum leap to our personal advancement.
I felt like defining the keyword which will form basis and good premise for the discussion.
This is not a new word however allowing it to find expression is a bit challenging.
Sorry is a feeling of being sad over a particular thing or incident.
Sorry means to feel regret or disappointed over an event.
In the nutshell, sorry has to do with feeling, sympathy emotional about a thing.
There are different people with different configurations of the heart disposition. Our responses to anger is the function of how broken our hearts are.
Before I hinge on this question, I will like to respond to the issue of accepting being wrong with ease.
I'm the type that always find it with easy to say sorry. At times I can even say sorry on your behalf though I am not the offender just to maintain peace and tranquility.

He realised that no matter the gravity of wrong done unto me, I easily say sorry even when I haven't committed any sin or crime. He picked up courage and asked me one day how comes I find it with ease to say sorry? I laughed and wondering why such question?
I simply told him that was how I brought up. He nods his head and shook my hand.
I also remembered a scenario where someone came to me after I finished ministering with a need for money. After listening to him, I quickly gave him what I had and he left joyfully. I thought this youngman would come for apologies on why the repayment delays but months in and months out no any information. Later I met him in a wedding, we exchanged pleasantries. Instead of him to feel sorry for me, hmmm reverse was the case. What a life. Anyway I have forgiven him and wish him well wherever he is.
Living with such kind of mindset is not easy but I believe that with determination, discipline. I have never remain the same. I keep moving from one level to another even as I keep overcoming the challenges. To say sorry is a deliberate act and must not be procrastinated.
The few lessons learnt are;
