It’s Okay to Say “I’m Sorry”
Wise words from our founder and CEO @mrjasonowilson:
“𝘚𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴, 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯. 𝘚𝘰 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵—𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘻𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨.”
It’s our job to teach our children when to apologize, how to apologize, and to never let our pride or stubbornness get in the way of doing what’s right.💙
