Don't be sorry, DO RIGHT!

"I'm sorry"
…So over used and undervalued. How many times have you had someone tell you I'm sorry for something you have forgiven them for time and time again? Well after so long "I'm sorry" is just like saying "I'm gonna do it again, you know?" It's a slap in the face. I tweeted yesterday. "I'm sorry is like a band-aid on a bullet hole, change is what heals the wound" If you constantly apologize for something, even if it's something different from last time, the point is you knew you were wrong when you did it. (Sorry- wretched, poor, useless, or pitiful) Are you pitiful? Are you useless....? Starts to look that way after a while... These days "sorry" has become a pacifier; what people give you to get you to shut the hell up! The best thing to do when you think someone want to hear you say I'm sorry, don't say anything. If they accept it they do, if not then they don't. Often times in relationships people find it easier to deal with a situation by accepting the fault. But what if you don't really think you're wrong? What if you really aren't wrong? Small things, petty things where the glory isn't worth the battle... fine, Let It Go but what about the chain of events afterwards. If you admit to being wrong and carry on about how sorry you are and in reality you feel like you were perfectly justified, what happens when you do it again? We don't look at the end result and the effect those two small words can have on the future. Trust can be ruined just by those simple words. My advice just don't say I'm sorry if you don't mean it.
