Dent In Car


Symbol: Dent in Car

Lesson: Apology does not remove damage

Illustration: Traffic comes to a sudden stop and you inadvertently rear-end the car ahead of you. You both pull over and you apologize. However, no matter how sorry you are, the dents and damage to the other vehicle are still there. Similarly, when we speak an unkind word, even if we apologize afterwards, the hurt is still there. The damage to the relationship is still done. How much better to be both a safe driver and a kind person.

Notes: Heard at assembly in 2015
