Sorry Not SorrySample

LIVE // Have you ever told someone you forgive them, just so you could get them to apologize? In those moments, you’re not really forgiving them. You’re more interested in getting the apology. Sometimes we can focus so much on the apology we deserve that we forget other people are going through things as well—things that may have led them to behave badly in the first place. For example: Your younger sibling keeps “borrowing” (but never returning) your favorite things. Instead of blowing up at them, try asking them, “Why?” Maybe your younger brother looks up to you and is taking your stuff to try to be more like you. Today, if you feel yourself becoming frustrated about something someone is or isn’t doing, take a deep breath. Instead of lashing out, ask them WHY. You may be surprised at what you hear.
