I want to apology to you again for my blow up on the day of your Senior photos.

While, your friendships are important, you need to figure out time management techniques to complete what is being asked of you. Johnathon, consider for a moment what is asked of you…I’ll give you that some of your friends have zero responsibilities;

This divide is still prominent in today’s society, highlighted by Kevin Rudd’s Apology speech in 2006. What is very clear however, is that no matter how many people are against it, many more are for reconciliation. This is where it is possible to see the real issue.…

In “A Sorry State”, Mitch Miyagawa discusses the many apologies that have been given out by governments around the world and what those apologies truly accomplish. There has been an apology given for every war, every case of discrimination, and every misguided choice.…

    In the Apology of Socrates there is not real evidence of true impiety for the Athenian government, but Socrates does put forth feelings of arrogance and self-confidence within himself and his beliefs. Throughout Socrates’ trial he hardly questions anyone which would be seen in a traditional trial, he often goes on tangents and laments about the injustices of the world in large words that perhaps many of the people there did not understand which leads to him being seen as impious and rejecting traditional Athenian values. In the beginning of his trial Socrates talks about how he had never been to court in his more than seventy years of life, and that because he wasn’t accustomed to their language he would talk in the language he had learned,…

    Can Justice and Forgiveness go Hand in Hand? Justice and forgiveness can go hand in hand. Forgiveness can mean many things, but true forgiveness is releasing the feelings of vengeance and resentment towards a person. Justice can also have multiple meanings, but true justice means when an offender repents on their wrongdoings and reconciles with their victims.

    To start off my apology I would like to start by saying that I know what I have done is not what I should be doing and every time that I do something that is against the rules other people think that it is ok to break the rules too and I know that I have a lot of people looking up to me so I am not being a very good role model for the people around me. I know the 9th graders look up to us when we are in bible class. Like the other day in class I said something funny and they all laugh and even on the next day they were bringing it up and saying how funny it was. so If I act bad then they are going to think Nathan is being bad so it must be cool to be bad and that is not the kind of example I want to set so the kids in the younger grades I want them to know that they can be cool or funny and still follow the rules and that the rules are in place not to make the class more lame or boring but to make the class easier on us and on the teachers. So In the next couple of paragraph I will explain the three major even of what happened and explain what I could have…
