No human being is perfect. We all make mistakes, yet it is so hard to admit that we are wrong. A famous line from the book Love Story by Eric Segal states that "Love means never having to say you're sorry". This may sound romantic but it is a really bad line to live by. Apologies are necessary in every relationship.. Apologies are the building block of relationships. If a family has any hope of staying together, there will be frequent and sincere apologies. It is an evident sign of humility, acceptance, forgiveness and love. It's so hard to say sorry when your heart is full of pride, but it's more difficult to live a day knowing that you had hurt someone, unintentional somehow, yet it does not liberate the fact that you have offended a person. The past week had me blew out of proportion, I am totally in awe. On the lighter note, I am glad to have a learning experience. It made me slow down, took a breathe and ponder on my own behavior and actions. Oftentimes, I get so hectic and nailed with my school activities, pushing myself hard with my studies that seemed never ending,,and a a hearty laugh with my friends we're just a perfect break for unwinding..but now I realized that some source of our meltdown is not funny at all.At times, it brought us to a limitless level wherein we forgot to be responsible of our actions, putting the values we had in prejudice. I am still having a normal childhood, and naughtiness did not spare me from it. My mom said, there are times that we learned in a hard way. At this point, I can say that I am going thru that stage of my life where I am full of guilt to hurt the person I respect. This is not how I was brought up, but being the optimistic girl that I am,,,this will not put me down...I stood up from where I fall,,acknowledged my mistake, accepted the reprimand, said sorry and promise never to do it again..
Thank You Lord for the enlightenment, for teaching me the value of humility...I am humbled by the experience and I will never cease to be the best of what I can be,,,not to commit the same mistake over again. I promise to be a good person bound to please and serve You,always and forever.
