Isn't it funny how raising daughters makes you look at your actions and words in an entirely new way? I get so nervous that I'm teaching her all of my own insecurities and bad habits, "sorry" definitely being high up on that list...<br /> <br />I also see I'm a few months late commenting, which means congratulations may be in order. :) Ashleyhttp://www.morninggoodies.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8842811545737336269.post-21139202753723830522015-07-01T00:02:38.814-05:002015-07-01T00:02:38.814-05:00Well put.

And this post was a perfect way to re-enter. I am always saying I'm sorry. Many times I've been told in response, "It's not your fault." To which I reply, "Yes, but I'm sorry it happened." However, I realize that my trigger-apologies often come from the place where that *I'm-not-enough* feeling resides. I don't like that feeling.<br /><br />And I just love what you said - "...none of them were apologizing between roars." That is SO good!!<br /><br />Yes, reminded me of that old Helen Reddy song (and I am severely dating myself here) - "I Am Woman." Part of the lyrics go like this:<br /><br />"I am woman, hear me roar<br />If I have to, I can do anything<br />I am strong<br />I am invincible<br />I am woman."<br /><br /><br />I believe Aslan is calling us to roar...<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8842811545737336269.post-30239215583237185892015-06-23T16:28:13.635-05:002015-06-23T16:28:13.635-05:00Yes, I agree.

Sorry had become so prevalent in my speech patterns that when I truly meant to say "I'm Sorry", I know that he was confused. I also agree with the what you shared in your last paragraph.
