A Good Apology


A good apology has three parts:
1) I'm sorry
2) It was my fault
3) How do I make it right?

A lot of people usually miss the third part.


I received this text message from my friend Yam and it made sense to me. Because I'm one of those who can easily apologize for a mistake but seldom exert an effort to avoid repeating it.

My realization was no matter how I've tried my best to overcome my weakness, I still fail. It's true that changing our ways is not possible without help from God. It's only through God's grace - with fervent prayers and God's word as our weapon - that we could triumph over our shortcomings.
