an apology from one exposed to the light

Earlier this year, I wrote the blog post titled "Exposed to the Light".

Controversial stuff!


-------

One of those people I had criticized on "Exposed to the Light" saw my blog post. That would be Anolani Kaio (aka Anolani Hanohano). She wrote this to me
Hi Pablo,
I came across your blog and wanted to say that I am sorry for teasing you. I honestly don't remember, but I am sorry.
'Ano

.. and I replied by saying

Thanks for reading my blog, I'm glad it's making a positive impact.
For further reference, if you say "I honestly don't remember", nobody is going to believe you.


While it's good to see an apology, don't you think it's awkward to apologize for something you don't remember?


"I honestly don't remember" sounds like a lie! Probably is!



But then again, memories do get impaired by things like concussions, medications and other stuff. Not sure if Anolani experienced any of these!


Anyways she knew I exposed a negative side of her that she had to admit existed!  She was embarrassed by what I exposed, and she knew it was best to make amends!
