unspoken apology

Unspoken apology.


Beth revis says- "I'm sorry", are the two most inadequate words in the english language.

G k chesterton says- A stiff apology is a second insult. One does not want to be compensated. One wants to be healed because one has been hurt.

We accept repetitive, suffocating, claustrophobic behaviour.
Do we make ourselves pay for intangible, uncommitted sins?
There ought to be norms attached to one's code of conduct.
Suavities and decorum should be a prerequisite for appropriateness.
Changed behaviour can just be atonement.
Emotional pock marks need self validation.
The ace scheduler in us need to allocate personal time lines
We cannot let life and sinners pass us by quietly.
Dignity and respect ought to be a two way street.
Why do we gaze at circumstances with unuttered appeal?
Why do we glue ourselves to the dreading time zone?
Why do we silence our own inner voice?
We become the unmoved mover, the speechless observer.
Constantly.
Admittedly.
Repititively.
Expecting admission of flaws is the least form of respect we need.
Do we unknowingly aid the doer in wronging by stopping from gathering ourselves and moving on?
We form our defense by shielding in our own insecurities.
We lack strength.
Lets not embrace the glorius mess of people.

Before each invisible scar screams for attention, lets not accept an unspoken apology.
