To continue our series on apologies and amends, how do you know if someone is really ready to change?

True change requires introspection and being ready to take a real look at yourself and your behaviours without minimizing, shifting blame or making excuses. It comes from sitting with the truth of a situation and the harm it may have caused, not to beat yourself up or sit in shame because that will create the potential for more harmful behaviour, but rather to develop empathy, grow, and evolve. It is true and measurable, based in the now moment, not the future.

This process takes time and sends a person off on a new path of evolution. If someone is making an effort to change and improve their relationship with you, we encourage you not to expect perfection but rather consistent effort. As long as the person is committed to being different, offer grace if they occasionally falter because as most of you are well aware, healing is rarely a straight path. Self responsibility, commitment, and continued effort is the key. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
