Sometimes you’re not always right. Or maybe you are, but it still hurt someone. Put that pride to the side and apologize

nothing is harder than realizing you‘re in the wrong and having to apologize, even if it’s immediately then or a year later
but sometimes you have to rip the bandaid off and find peace with the fact that you ultimately did the right thing at the end. whether they accept the apology or not, that’s not something you can control but at least, you admitted your wrongs

I had a conflict with someone earlier today. We were both wrong. Each had our share of sub-par behavior.
At first I didn't want to apologize, even though I knew I'd screwed up: I didn't want to do anything to distract them from their error.
But then I thought about it: what do I really want here? I want a relationship with this person. I don't want bad blood between us. I'd much rather have reconciliation and resolution than preserve my pride.
So I decided that I didn't care if they apologized or owned their stuff. I'd just focus on my side of it, worry about that only, and make sure my own slate was cleared.
And of course once I'd apologized then they did too. If I hadn't then who knows how long it would have been until reconciliation. So totally worth it.
It's sad that some friendships end or families splinter because neither person is willing to say sorry first.

When you’re in one big line you can’t hear your friends well. No one want to shuffle across 5 people either.
Gives opportunity to braid someone’s hair or put a piece of popcorn on their head if you’re cheeky.
