We rarely wrestle with apology and lose.
Apology is both transactional, in that it restores what has been broken to what it was before, and transformational, in that it creates opportunities that didn't exist before.
Apology is not for the faint of heart, but then, neither is life.
Apology may be scorned, but it retains its inherent value.
Apology is the most courageous gesture we can make to ourselves.
You don't have to see eye-to-eye to walk hand-in-hand. You just have to want to go in the same direction.
