Hello friends. Happy to see everyone again this beautiful day. I come in peace ✋.
This week's contest topic bis very special for me. Because I am one of those who use to have problem with saying " I am sorry". Is just five later words. But it was difficult for me to say before. I don't really know why it was like that, but it really gave me hard time to learn how to be sorry when I need to. This simple "sorry" have healed lots of hearts. The absence of it in any relationship can cause lots of problems that may not be salvage for a decade. I have personal seen family go there separate ways because no one was ready to say "sorry" I have seen relationship that was heading to a better place scattered because of the absence of "sorry". My prayers today is that we will learn and embrace the attitude of saying " sorry".
I'm Sorry
There are people who find this easy to say, whether they are in the wrong or not.
Of course there are some Who say sorry so easily. But at first, I wasn't in this group. Then, I do envy those who can easily say sorry. I wished that I can say it. But even when I wanted to say it. The words are not forth coming. My mouth will be very heavy at that moment. But people around me will always say that I don't like saying sorry. People called me a stubborn girl. Though it seems that they are right. But that is not what is happening to me. I was living in bondage. I wished that I can do the right thing, but it was not possible.
When I was still seventeen, I was learning tailoring work from a lady and she didn't tolerate late coming to her shop. That faithful day, I did some house chores at home and it delayed me a little. Immediately I came to shop, she asked me to go back home. I started crying and couldn't talk or even apologize. All that came to my mind was to go to a neighbor to ask her to go and talk to my madam. But she told me that when we get to the place, that I should say that I am sorry to my madam. I didn't respond to her knowing how difficult it is for me to say sorry. When we got to our shop, the woman I brought apologized on my behalf and asked me to say sorry. All that I did was to bend my head and start looking downwards. I didn't say anything else and I could not raise my head up. When the woman saw the way I was behaving she quickly stood for me and started talking. I was so embarrassed that I couldn't say " sorry".
- And then, there are those that find it difficult to say. Which are you?
I have switched oh! I no longer find it difficult to say sorry. I love saying it now. In fact, sometimes even when I am not wrong, I just say "sorry" just for peace to reign. Maybe is because I am advancing in age. When people begin to grow older, they will suddenly discovered that some things that do is not actually worth the stress. Having problems here and there is not worth the stress. When you live in peace with people, your own life will become a blessing to others.
Conclusively, I did love to say that saying sorry is not just a healing for the person you are talking to. But also a healing for you saying it. Because you will find peace and joy the moment you say it. S O R R Y is not hard to say, but difficult to pronounce.
Thanks for coming around. You comment will be well appreciated.
