This is my story where Sorry saved the situation"

Sometimes we intentionally or unintentionally offend people which usually happens to be common to everyone inasmuch as we are all human beings no one is above that, but nevertheless we should always learn to apologize and say sorry when we are at fault or not this show that you respect the other person feeling and it will help foster and enhance our well being and daily lives as well as healing emotional wounds, building trust, and preventing resentment.Let me quickly share a story with you all.

I once lived in a public yard where there were so many little children that always comes around me to play and tell them story as I usually do most times I help them out with their home projects and even give out my phone for them to watch cartoons and play games that gives them fun.

But all of a sudden after sometimes there started having misunderstanding whenever am not with them which is all about who will play next to the other when playing game or who will hold the phone while watching cartoons and this keep happening which I didn't like at all so made promise to them that anyone who causes trouble will be sent home and will not come to my place again and this strategy works perfectly that no one struggle or cause trouble any longer and I was so impressed happy with the decision I made.

Not until one evening when they were watching Tom and Jerry cartoon on my phone that they where all enjoying the show and having, that even collecting my phone was very difficult because I don't want to spoil their mood but luckily and fortunately for me I got a phone call from my friend which gave me easy access to take the phone from them without any of them complaining and after the phone call I still handed it over back to them informing all of them that am going out to get something and when coming back I will collect the phone because I want to use it which they reluctantly agreed, coming back I saw them standing and starring at each other instead of watching the cartoon and I was surprised only for to reach there I heard my phone fell down and the screen cracked and they where busy pointing and blaming each other when I checked the phone the screen was badly affected because I didn't put screen guard on it, so out of anger I shouted at them to go home I don't want to see them until anytime I called them, when I got inside I made a promise that I will not give out my phone again since they decided to be fighting with each other.

Few days passed I stop sitting out with them as usual that even their parents noticed it and asked me what was the problem which I explained to some of them so the next day evening i was inside trying to create my steemit post when I heard a knock on the door so I quickly stand up the check who is knocking behold it was the children who gathered together that their parents asked them to come and apologize for what they did some days back that they want me to forgive them so that we can unite again as friends and they promised it won't happen again looking at their innocent face my heart quickly melted that I responded assive nothing happened before as i accepted their apologies.

What could you have done to avoid that situation that led to using that word.

How I wish I refused giving out my to them all this wouldn't have started at the first place though I never saw that coming but the important and sweetest part was how they humble them self to apologize and I was left with no option than to forgive them because it was a mistakes.
This truly means sorry goes along way because how I wish they didn't do that I have decided that I won't give out my phone again unless doing home projects for them thats all because it cost me money to fix the damage on the screen but with the way things went that day after they said sorry I forgive and forget the pain I felt as well as the expenses I made for the phone.
