[0240]

When you say or do something, there is a chain of reactions that follow it. You should understand that once you have said or done something, it impacts your world. Once you have said or done something to offend or hurt someone, your words or actions can only be forgiven, never forgotten. Once you've said or done something, anything at all, it will become a part of you. You can't shed it, you can't escape it. A sorry can only be uttered in hopes of forgiveness. You must never expect someone to forget. They may say "don't worry, it's forgotten. I forgive you." But this is never the case. One does not simply forget. So think about who you are and what you wish to be seen as before you open your mouth or act upon a whim. Mind your tongue, and mind your manners.

"For trust not him that hath once broken faith"
- William Shakespeare
