On saying sorry

I once knew a person. I don't anymore. Under circumstances.

After so many issues, I've called it quits. After all, I've realized how amazing life is without.

Here I would like to talk about the meaning of the word "sorry".

Sorry in my perception is more than just a word or phrase. It is not something that is thrown about freely as if without weight. To be able to say sorry is to realize greatly the predicament you have once bestowed upon the other person involved, before even uttering those words. Bestowed in this case would be greatly inappropriate. Or, the meaning of sorry in itself is by far hidden within so many layers of doubt.

Dear friends,

Meminta maaf itu adalah satu kebaikan jika dibuat dengan niat yang betul. Semestinya, niat seseorang itu tidak boleh dinilai dengan mata kasar. Mahupun, jika ingin meminta maaf, tunjukkanlah yang anda maksudkannya dengan hati yang ikhlas, dan bukan sekadar satu permainan.

It is a great opportunity of rekindling broken ties, by just being humble and admitting that you are sorry, when a mistake has been done. However, there are circumstances whereby forgiveness is in vain and that those ties can never be mend again. So, don't take apologizing lightly. It definitely shows your true character of a person.
