Durante di Alighiero Alighieri, often called Dante, was an Italian poet, writer, and philosopher. His Divine Comedy called Comedìa, initially and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, is widely considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the most significant literary work in the Italian language; said pride was the most damnable of the deadly sins. Other religious and spiritual thinkers felt similarly. For example, Augustine of Hippo, also known as Saint Augustine, was a theologian and philosopher of Berber origin and the bishop of Hippo Regius in Numidia, Roman, North Africa. His writings influenced the development of Western philosophy and Christianity. He is viewed as one of the most important Church Fathers of the Latin Church in the Patristic Period, and Clive Staples Lewis, FBA, was a British writer and Anglican lay theologian. He held academic positions in English literature at Oxford and Cambridge Universities; He taught that pride was the root of all other sins and moral failures.

If you hurt someone, said something wrong, or made a regrettable mistake, ‘I’m sorry’ can be two of the most helpful words.

Why is I am very sorry so challenging to say in any language? The next time you find yourself on the wrong side of wrong, say désolé, scusi, perdón, 对不起 or whatever the appropriate choice is.

Hopefully, you won’t need to practice these soon, but just in case, check a list and learn to say ‘I’m sorry’ in different languages worldwide. We know a few, and so should you.

Haters will always be haters; there is no way to avoid angry people who are determined and wish to spread their toxicity.

Nobody can make you feel a certain way. Your reactions are created within you.

I know it doesn't always feel like that, and there's no denying we can all get triggered. But the key is not to give your power away, especially to someone who isn't worth it.

Recognize that you ultimately get to decide how you want to react.
