Best Apologies We Can Do

7/13/2011

“Right actions in the future are the best apologies for bad actions in the past.” -Tyron Edwards

I read this quote on a Facebook posting this morning and it got me thinking.

What a great quote to think about and then put into action.

Since we all make mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes hurt the ones we love; one of the best things we can
do to make amends is to change the way we act and the way we do things in the future.

Summertime is a great time to take a look at where we are going in our lives. Certain times during the summer, when we get the chance to hopefully slow down and relax; is the perfect time to reflect on things that have been going on in our lives.

Then upon that reflection, it’s time to do something about it.

That "doing" piece, has been a problem of mine for as long as I can remember.

It’s one of the main missing puzzle pieces in my life.  I have recently found that I knew what it was, but yet I still have had trouble making that piece fit into my puzzle of my life. 

I have found myself saying a I’m sorry to people for not doing things I said I would do.  My wife is the main person that I need to focus this quote on in my life.  I can start doing it right now, I actually started yesterday.

Actions speak louder than words.  I have learned that in my life and continue to learn it all the time.

What areas can you work on that would make things better with someone you care for?  

As always, I think when people share experiences, we all get to learn from those shared stories.  Let me know your
thoughts.
