What to do when we hurt someone, we let them down, we cheated, we cheated, we made mistakes, we judged, or we blamed
- We all make mistakes
- We all say something out of place
- Hurt others, accuse, judge, shout…
And then regret and guilt and anger over how I did something that goes against who I am and my values…
And it hurts us the most… that we hurt a person who lied to us
We shouted at our kids
We said a painful word to the parents
We accused a friend of lying to us without finding out the facts
We lied to our spouses
We cheated, we betrayed…
And at that moment,… do not always know what to do except say… sorry
And there is more to do so. Need to make an effort!
