Do you ever realize how
many times we tell sorry in a day? Who would have count anyway? But if we think,
is it not the only words that may seem to keep us remain unruffled but never
leaves us thinking like what have I done to get this or say this? What is wrong
with me? Or something like did the ‘sorry ’really repaired the already damaged
and gone-under water things? Why say
sorry when the damage is already done? It can never make dead man alive, one
common sentence we often say. Of course it is a different story if we genuinely
feel sorry ourselves and that we are ready to give a shot to redeem and change
for ourselves; this is what I feel more important than just verbally convincing
someone with the use of word ‘sorry’and hence I often hesitate to say
sorry. Otherwise I feel now days the
word ‘sorry’ has become too casual and unrespectable in many ways.
Anyways recently there
was an incident where I felt I should have said sorry to someone who deserves
for he is older than me; whom I think I might have hurt his sentiment very
much. He was full of complains afterwards may be because I was hesitant to say
sorry because I felt the damage was already done and the word sorry would be of
little help. Well, it wasn’t, perhaps because we all live in the world full of
fake sorries and I failed to provide one. It was out of mere ego and I do
regret for that genuinely. But like I said I am ready to move on with the new
lesson I learned from that incident. Sometimes it is better to live without
expectations you know, expectations breed imbalance in your sentiments which
ultimately leads to feeling bad somehow and that’s where all problems arise.
But still I think the
word sorry is rather an obstruction, and easy excuse for someone who is not genuinely
ready to accept the reality. It hardly serves its purpose. I mean when what has happened is already a
past story why console with the word sorry instead of trying to contain the situation
with other alternatives. But fortunately we all live in a society where it is
OK to receive and give the word so easily, where it is OK to say sorry even
after a disastrous failures. Politicians
give false hopes and it is OK to say sorry, social media out cries begging for
sorry as if the sorry is so magical to turn the hands of clock. But like I said
why say in the first place if you aren’t sorry after all?
