Living Void of Apology

Have you ever seen anyone claim to live non-apologetically as a way to act recklessly?

I’d like to take this time out to oppose this idea that living this way must involve reckless behavior.

To live without apology doesn’t necessarily mean living recklessly, whether it is reckless toward yourself or towards others. It is not a matter of doing whatever you want and not caring about the feelings of those around you. Living non-apologetically is taking ownership of the things you’ve done, and corrected, and not being affected by anyone who talks down on you because of your experiences.

Notice I said “and corrected.” If you’re still stuck in the same thing you know you need to let go of and people are criticizing what it is you’re doing, then they somewhat have that right. Especially if that thing is causing you to become a version of yourself that no one can embrace, including you.

Living non-apologetically means not having to keep apologizing for the mistakes you have made in the past that you have already dealt with. The reality is, everybody goes through something they are not proud of and experiences things that people will most always look down upon. Living non-apologetically means not feeling shameful about how you used to live. It’s being free to embrace the mistakes you've learned from and not hanging your own stuff over your head.

Stop feeling sorry for what has already been taken care of and Live Non-apologetically
