Tue Oct 28 2025
Have you ever wished for an apology that might never come?
In this episode of Apology Avenue, we hear a heartfelt letter from a father to his son — an emotional apology for years of distance, irresponsibility, and emotional absence. Through his words, we witness the pain of regret, the awareness of his past failures, and his deep desire to break the cycle and finally show up with love.
(Remember: In this series, we are reading apology letters we have written to ourselves from the person who has hurt us. This is a journaling practice.)
