the five letter magic word

In our effort of a picture perfect life we often encounter with this five letter magic word sorry. Our reaction to the word varies to the mood we are into or the repercussion caused by the mistake. We are angry, ruthless, disappointed and in the rarest condition forgiving at the person who did the mistake. The intent of sorry is to express the regret of not matching the set expectations. It is in real the courtesy shown by the delinquent after going astray. It is tragic that we return the courtesy in most times in an unfair way. Although this magic word is exchanged from both ends howbeit we dismiss it like platitude when it is excerpted by others without realizing our frequency of usage.

Sorry has now a day become an indispensable tool in dealing with our life. It is true that we are human not flawless machines and so mistakes are prone to ensue. The aspect to keep in mind is that when we say sorry the intent should remain afore said. We should be honest with ourselves and mean it. Sorry is an expression of trust and not an excuse and so we should never misuse it.  Sometimes sorry cannot redeem the disturbance caused in both tangible and intangible form and so we should never take it as granted. Sorry is an attempt of redemption. We should therefore never retreat it. When others mistake this courteous gesture as a cloak to cover the irresponsible actions, it is not our fault but the misfortune of the others.  

In a super hit movie the protagonist says that to do a mistake is easy, getting angry at others over a mistake is also easy but to apologize by accepting our mistakes requires a lot of courage. That is really true and such an effort does not go in vain. We do receive forgiveness for our slipup.
