How often do you hear someone say, “I was wrong.” Very powerful words indeed; it takes an enormous amount of humility and reflection to pronounce these words to someone else, especially as we get older. However, should these words be absent in our conversations? I do not think they should; they should be part of our daily conversations. I believe that admitting often that we are not perfect , that we are fallible, would make our world a better place. It would strengthen relationships and bring us closer to peace. When was the last time you admitted that you were wrong? Please comment

I humble accept my faults keeping in mind that I may have done something that I wasn’t aware that it may had offended someone. I might of offended and so if i am not aware and its brought to my attention I can try to make the other person understand my stand as to why I acted that way or apologize if i was wrong in anyway. I’VE always been that way and take responsibility and learn from it and mice on. Taking the lesson learned from the experience experienced I know how to address the individual or deal with the situation next time. Caution and processing what will be said and or the actions taken is important. Important to pause and ask yourself is it necessary or can it wait or should I say that.

Yes, I always say to myself, “Charlie, think before you speak.” Someone once told me that the words in your mind are yours, but the day they leave through your mouth they own you. I am learning this simple lesson at plus 50 and I am still learning. Truly, James says when he talks about the tongue- It can cause fires. Thanks for sharing
