How to Apol­o­gize

For over 10 years, I have found that writ­ing with­out a doubt is the best method of com­mu­ni­cat­ing strong feel­ings BEFORE a face to face meet­ing.  The rea­son is because when strong emo­tions are present peo­ple react and inter­rupt with­out intel­li­gently choos­ing their response.

Can you remem­ber wak­ing up on Christ­mas morn­ing, run­ning into the fam­ily room where the Christ­mas tree was buried in presents from Santa’s visit early that morn­ing? (If you didn’t have Santa Clause grow­ing up, you still had presents, right?)

Can you remem­ber the last time you were in somebody’s car and it was an absolute dis­as­ter?  (Maybe they were even liv­ing out of it?)  Did you find that their car was an excep­tion to the tidy, orderly way they usu­ally live?

Is she just con­fused today, or is she con­fused every­day? Read more
