Yesterday
This morning
I'm sorry but it's too easy.
The last time I said I'm so sorry was when I hit the motorbike of someone on the road.
it's important to apologize when we commit a mistake. don't matter if you don't the fault.
The last time I apologized was yesterday, to my mother. I don't actually remember what I did but I know that I had done something wrong and I'm getting used to apologize also because people around me say I can look like I get above myself all the time. I think about getting used to smile for nothing too for that, is it a good idea, let me know! 😅
The last time than I apologized was when I fell on top of a man because the bus stopped dead in its tracks, it made me laugh and after I apologized.
In the place I was born, the citizens have to be very polite compared to where I live now. Here, I figure out that I said sorry for a lot of things that the people don't care about it.
Fortunately, I haven't had any accidents with nobody recently.
Well, I have said sorry a couple of time to be late to a meeting.
The last time I said sorry was in this morning. Before being out of work yesterday, a colleague who works from home asked me a favor to turn off her computer, but I forgot it. This morning when she came to the office, she saw the computer was still on. Then I apologized to her and she said: it's ok, don't worry.
The last time I apologized was yeasterday when I said an ugly word in front of my friend.
