So many human beings, when they are wronged, think they need an apology. What we wish for you to understand is while an apology is lovely and a good first step, what you are really looking for is amends.

Have you noticed that you can receive apologies from someone who is in a negative pattern of behaviour but nothing really changes? That is because the apology is words. The amends are what you seek because that is what shows a commitment to change.

When someone wants to make amends to you they are showing an agreement that something needs to change. They are aware of the harm their behaviour has caused and are demonstrating true regret in the form of breaking a pattern and choosing a new path forward with you.

They are wanting to make the changes to become consistent and trustworthy. Apologies do not rebuild trust on their own. It is the consistency of true amends that does.

So if someone apologizes, do accept their apology with grace. But if they are not willing to acknowledge the effect their behaviour has had and do little to change, the pattern will likely continue. The apology is only the beginning. The amends are what pave the way forward, and that can only be achieved through consciousness, self awareness, and a true desire to evolve. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
