Another apology that fell flat on its face was that of Thierry Henry, the famous French footballer.His deli­berate handball in November 2009 created the goal which knocked Ireland out of the 2010 World Cup.The incident caused great anger in the football world, and eventually Henry issued an apology.Two days later, he wrote, “I'm not the referee...but if I hurt someone I'm sorry.” Better late than never, perhaps, but even then he passed the blame onto the referee!

　　Such high­profile cases, which attract a lot of publi­city are often under the spotlight, but similar incidents occur in our everyday lives.Stress caused by schoolwork and tiredness can sometimes result in outbursts of anger against friends and family.Have you ever lost your temper for minor reasons? After calming down, most people are quick to realize their mistake and apologize.But it's just as important to identify what caused the error in the first place and take action to ensure it doesn't happen again.

　　No one should hold a negative attitude to making a sincere apology.Empty words are easy to say, but they are as useless as they sound.A real show of remorse demands hard work and commitment to put error right.
