Perhaps we've argued, perhaps we've hit each other with fisticuffs or other weapons. Most likely I've said something in your general direction that offended you and either never apologized or never even realized I had wronged you. Whatever the case may be, I offer a sincere and meaningful apology. I do so via adapting a beautiful song and I do so because I beleive that strife has no place in anyone's life.
We can all do small acts to eliminate the strife from our lives and this would greatly reduce our stress. For myself, I aim to get rid of as much stress as possible because I don't have much mind left for it to erode. In that regard, again, I apologize for the harm, offense, pain I may have caused some of you. Hopefully you accept and we can move on peacefully in our respective lives. Whatever your decision, fill your life with hope and joy and live as powerfully as you can. Live with purpose.
My annual offering of hope, love, and reconciliation, with thanks and apologies to Sinead O'Conor.
"All Apologies"
I know that I have done many things
To give you reason not to listen to me,
Especially as I have been so angry,
But if you'd knew me maybe you would understand me.
Words can't express how sorry I am
If I ever caused pain to anybody.
I just hope that you can show compassion
And love me enough to just please listen.
I bring these blessings with me:
A strong heart full of hope and a feeling
That everything in this world would be okay
If people just believed in themselves enough to say
"I am the only obstacle between a Desolate Today and a Better Tomorrow."
But the world thinks that sounds crazy,
And that's the thing that makes me write so sadly.
To think that we would leave our dreams so lonely;
To think that we would mess up our own destiny
Out of hopelessness we can come
If people just believe it can be done...
all apologies,
christmas
