Day 30 - Amends

The other side of forgiveness is making amends, when it is you who has been, or needs to be, forgiven for harm you may have caused. As with forgiveness, the gift of making amends is revealed when it is given unconditionally from your heart.

Reflection
  • Making amends can come in the form of a sincere apology, they can also be much more.
  • Think of creative ways that you can make amends for harms you may have caused.
Action
  • Write down your ideas about making amends and the steps you would need to take to follow through.
  • Take the first step today.
“I don't regret things, because I learn from mistakes. If needs be, I always make amends.”

“It's not a person's mistakes which define them - it's the way they make amends.”
Freya North, Chances
“It is the highest form of self-respect to admit our errors and mistakes and make amends for them.”
Dale E. Turner
“Karma means that all actions have consequences. Grace means that in a moment of atonement -taking responsibility, making amends, asking for forgiveness - all karma is burned.”
