Hello there !! I am back here again been sick the past few days thats why I dont have any discussion to post. But now , Im well and okay , got the cough and colds and flu everyone in our household got it but now we have recovered.
So for my first discussion , I saw this online and I kinda agree with the statement. We are in the world of social media now and everything is being posted; sadly some people post their problems online and they forgot about privacy but I do understand that some do that because no one was there to listen to them.
I have friends who did this on their social media , They forgot or is having a hard time saying sorry to the person they have hurt and instead they look for qoutes to justify what they did wrong and thats where the problem starts.
Instead of admitting they've made a mistake , they divert the problem to another one . Apologizing is really hard at times to some people but it will help you find inner peace .
Have you apologized already? How did it go?

It's never fun when everyone in the house is under the weather.
Admitting mistakes takes courage, but the peace that comes with resolving conflicts and fostering understanding is definitely worth it. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where a genuine apology made a positive/negative difference?

@iKONICNoona Absolutely, I completely agree with you!
A truly sincere apology has this unique quality that resonates with authenticity, and you can feel it in your gut. I think our instincts play a significant role in gauging the sincerity of an apology.

I agree and at my age now , and with a lot of people from all walks of life that I have met and interacted with I would know and feel if they are sincere.

If an apology is very sincere you will feel it and I dont think it can have a negative impact .Meanwhile if an apology is not sincere you can sense its difference , Im not sure with everyone but I can tell and feel .

Thats right ! It should be done in private so no one will meddle . But things have change now with social media around and we should be very careful too for over sharing your private life .

@iKONICNoona I understand. I have also seen a lot of such posts. Sometimes when it is from family I just ignore and scroll past as I don't want to comment and increase problems.

I understand that maam , during the days when social media is not yet popular , communication as in face to face talking can solve problems , now things have changed. Some post their problem on social media making it a lot harder to resolve because many will meddle and some is gaining sympathy from friends etc... which diverts the real problem and making another issue a lot bigger ..

Thats what Im doing too , sometimes its really hard to admit that you've done something wrong , your ego is at stake most of the time but its the right thing to do.

I agree. And sometimes it is what is needed for peace and harmony in the family , relatives .. and this should be done in private .

If I know Ive done something wrong in words or in deed I will surely admit my mistakes and humble myself with a sincere apology.

The best thing that we should do. How I wish every one knew this but sadly some dont, they think posting it on social media can help solve the problem but it cant.

I agree maam, but some people find it hard to apologize because of ego too and shyness I guess.
