Why Should I say 'Sorry'?

Saying 'Sorry' seems to be the hardest word.

In my flying years, I can’t recall the countless time ‘Sorry’, ‘Thank you, ‘Trouble you.” were exchanged in the tiny galley.
To all crew wanabes, this is the cabin crew culture ok! :)

One does not walk away a loser when mistakes are admitted and apologies said.
In contrast, it reflects humility on self and the precious life lessons only adds to one’s advantage.
My heart softens when forgetful waitress or fellow MRT commuters say sorry when orders are forgotten and sardine-squeezing during peak hours.

I feel ‘enlightened’ when I read an article Gabriel sent today ;)
This sentence particularly strikes an impact on me, Mistakes, in my opinion, are not opportunities to chastise or place blame, they're opportunities to learn and improve."

So my Dearest Folks, next time you are stuck in an argument with your girlfriend/boyfriend, colleagues or anyone..
Take the opportunity to say ‘Sorry’ first, I bet you will be surprised with his/her soften heart, just like mine too *winks*

You will realize saying ‘Sorry’ is no longer the hardest word in the dictionary ;)
