When You Are Grumbling

When You Are Grumbling

Paul Stutzman, who biked a crossed the United States says:

I was miles from any town, complaining to myself about the wind and the heat, when I saw him coming toward me on the opposite shoulder of the highway. He was in a motorized wheelchair, a breathing tube in his throat and an oxygen tank lying across his legs. A brace held his head and neck immobile, and his arms were strapped tightly to the chair. His body appeared locked in paralysis except for the fingers of his left hand, which lay on a toggle switch that operated the chair.

Say, “I’m Sorry”

Say, “I’m Sorry”

Can you say, “I’m sorry?”

Mark Tyrell, therapist, speaker and author says: “Some people do not apologize, and can never admit they were wrong. Sorry isn’t a word they can say unless they are asking you to be.

People who don’t say sorry to their partner are much less likely to ever become married, or if they do they are much less likely to stay married. Never or seldom apologizing is a relationship crusher because one partner ends up feeling always in the wrong.”
