To Be Sorry

To Be Sorry To say that we are sorry - it is never easy, for we all have pride. If you say that you are sorry, when you are not, than don't say it. Don't betray your heart. If you say that you are sorry and don't mean it, when you do - no one will believe in you, when you are saying the truth. It is better to be true to ourselves than to lie and cheat our way through life. Whenever we make a mistake, or hurt someone, than let us say we are sorry all the way from the heart. Remember it takes a special person to admit when they are wrong. Let us be careful in all that we say and all that we do.Always think twice before you do or say anything, than maybe you won't regret it one day. Remember my friend - to say that you are sorry - it's all up to you...
