Somewhere in life we all decided we were no longer going to say "I'm sorry". I am not sure if it was when I found out I had to share my room, toys and space with one of my little sisters. I didn't know if it happened the day I stood up to the boy that pulled my hair in school and pushed him off of a slide. Maybe, just maybe it happened the day I was working my corporate job 9 months pregnant, full of hormones, hungry and I snapped at my boss but somewhere along the lines it happened.
