I was recently told that I've been behaving like a proverbial jerk, insensitive and nasty. A part of me would like to believe that everyone around me is being overly sensitive. Alas that would be wishful thinking laced with deep denial. I've taken stock and realised that while I don't intend to offend people, what I find amusing about other people when vocalised can cause unnecessary hurt. It doesn't surprise me though. There is more power in words than anyone cares to acknowledge.
To cut a long story short. I'm sorry for offending you.
If you want a personal apology for something I did or said, please come see me, tell me how I offended you and I'll apologise.
