th story that touched me alot..

The story goes like this .
There was a father who punished his 5-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper . Money was tight for him and he became even more upset when the child used the gold paper to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree .
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her father the next morning and said , This is for you , Dad . The father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction and hoping there's a nice present for him, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty . He spoke to her in a harsh manner .Don't you know when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package ?
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said . Oh , Dad , it's not empty . I blew kisses into it until it was full .The father was crushed .He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl, and begged for her forgivness for his unnecessary anger .
An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it is told that the father kept that gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. And whenever he was discouraged or faced any difficulty problems he would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there .

so by apologising may not mean you're wrong , it just simply means that u cherish the relationship much more than your ego .
