When it's hard to say, "I'm sorry!"

Jack’s Winning Words 7/24/14
“Why do people always apologize to corpses?”  (David Brin)  Recently I saw an article about “How to say, ‘I’m sorry.’”  The writer suggested that empathy (putting yourself in the other’s place) is the start of a good apology.  Besides that, people who apologize tend to have better mental health.  Oftentimes we will make an admission of guilt, but fall short of asking for forgiveness.  They go together.  “I’m sorry!  Forgive me!”    ;-)  Jack
