¡¡¡¡ Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process. The instructor asked us to list ¡¡¡¡1¡¡¡¡ ¡¡in our past that we felt ¡¡¡¡2¡¡ ¡¡of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.

¡¡¡¡ This seemed like a very ¡¡¡¡3¡¡¡¡ ¡¡process, but there¡¯s always some ¡¡¡¡4¡¡ ¡¡soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then ¡¡¡¡5¡¡ ¡¡that we find ways to ¡¡¡¡6¡¡¡¡ ¡¡people, or take some action to right any wrongdoings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever ¡¡7¡¡ ¡¡my communication.

¡¡¡¡ Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story: ¡°Making my ¡¡¡¡8¡¡ ¡¡I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town where was a Sheriff ¡¡¡¡9¡¡ ¡¡of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies and I decided to play a ¡¡¡¡10¡¡ ¡¡on him. After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is a s.o.b. The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious ¡¡¡¡11¡¡ . Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one ¡¡¡¡12¡¡ ¡¡found out.¡±

¡¡¡¡ ¡°Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown¡¯s name ¡¡¡¡13¡¡ ¡¡on my list. I didn¡¯t even know if he was still ¡¡¡¡14¡¡ ¡¡. Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few ¡¡¡¡15¡¡ , I heard, ¡®Hello?¡¯ I said, ¡®Sheriff Brown?¡¯ Pause. ¡®Yes.¡¯ ¡®Well, this is Jimmy Calkins. And I want you to know that I did it¡¯ Pause. ¡®I knew it!¡¯ he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a ¡¡¡¡16¡¡ ¡¡discussion. His closing words were: ¡®Jimmy, I always felt bad for you ¡¡¡¡17¡¡ ¡¡your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it ¡¡¡¡18¡¡ ¡¡all these years. I want to thank you for calling me ... for your sake.¡¯¡±

¡¡¡¡ Jimmy inspired me to ¡¡¡¡19¡¡ ¡¡all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: it¡¯s never too late to ¡¡¡¡20¡¡ ¡¡the past wrongdoings.
