Apology I'm going to go over five different ways that you can apologize part of forgiveness is apologizing. One expressing regret. So saying I am sorry for whatever it is you're sorry for this shows that you know what you did wrong and why it hurt the other person. It must be from the heart when you express a sincere heartfelt apology, the other person will feel satisfied knowing that you understand what you did that displeased them and regret your actions. To accepting responsibility. You can say I was wrong.
This shows that you admit your mistake of wrongdoing and you take responsibility for it. When you apologize. The other person knows that you're genuine when you take responsibility for your actions and admit that you were wrong. Three, making restitution. So you could say what can I do to make it right then shows that you care and value the relationship with that person. When we are wronged we can feel better able to forgive if a sincere effort is made to make it up to us actually just offering put some of us at ease.
For genuinely repenting, you can say I'll try not to do that. Again. This shows that you genuinely want to change your behavior. You agree it was wrong. And five requesting forgiveness. So you can say Will you please forgive me?
This shows that you want to be forgiven. And you admit fault. When you directly ask for forgiveness. It shows that you understand what you did and you're sorry for it and more importantly, you value their forgiveness.
