2) don't make EXUSES
(I know I did....BUT you mad me mad)
3) accept the CONSEQUENCES.
(because you drove home drunk you get you car taken away)
4) Change your BEHAVIOR.
(don't just say sorry but do something about it)
5) Ask for FORGIVENESS.
(when you know you done something wrong, put it forward and change it bye asking for forgiveness)
