Is Sorry the Hardest Word?

Blue, along with Elton John, crooned that “Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word”. The failure to say a timely sorry is what is the main cause for bonds to break. Relationships that take so long to forge snap in just a second because someone had too much ego to admit his/her folly and say a simple sorry.

When we tread on someone’s foot, or if we are shoved against another person in the lift, or when we do anything intentionally that the other person is hurt or inconvenienced, we are quick to offer a sorry. But when one jumps to conclusions without verifying a fact, or is judgmental without knowing a person, or when one is involved in any action that causes a dear one hurt or pain, we are parsimonious with that little word willing rather to break the bond rather than admit that one was sorry for being the cause of the problem.

Why, indeed, is sorry the hardest word with the most loved one?
