This is my favorite apology from my mom explaining her life over the last 15 years, " I am sorry that you feel that I hurt you...so if I did hurt you, sorry. I did not intend for my actions to have that effect on you."

Yeah, I am almost ready to apologize on the level with the big wigs in office. A couple more years dealing with my passive-agressive mother and I will be ready to go.
