A
true apology is more than just admission of a mistake. It’s recognition that
something you’ve said or done has 1 a relationship---and that you care 2
about that relationship
to want it repaired.
It’s
never 3 to admit you are in wrong. Being human,
we all need the 4 of apology. Look back and think how 5 you’ve judged roughly, said 6 things, pushed yourself 7 at the expense of a friend. Some 8 thought in us knows that when even a
small mistake has been made, your feeling will stay out of 9 until the mistake is admitted and regret 10 .
I
remember a doctor friend telling me about a man who came to him with different 11 : headaches, insomnia, stomachaches and
so on. No 12 cause could be found. Finally the doctor
said to the man, “Unless you tell me what’s on your conscience, I can’t help
you.”
After
a short 13 , the man told the doctor that he 14 all the money that his father gave to his
brother, who was 15 . His father had died, so only he himself
knew the 16 . The old doctor made the man write to
his brother making a(n) 17 and enclosing a 18 . In the post office, the man dropped the
letter into the mail box. As the letter 19 , the man burst into 20 . “Thank you, doctor,” he said. “I
think I’m all right now.” And he was.
