Apology may be scorned, but it retains its inherent value.

An effective apology contains within it the answer to the question, "How am I to be held accountable?"

Apology may be scorned, but it retains its inherent value.

Apology is the most courageous gesture we can make to ourselves.

Apology may start as a feeling, a desire to make matters right, but it requires a commitment to move that desire into practice, to actually take on the great courageous task of showing compassion to others.

An effective apology focuses more on compassion for the victim than redemption for the offender.

When we apologize we end our struggle with history.
