What if I didn’t have to apologize?.

Sure, saying we are sorry to a person for causing harm is respectful and necessary. We surrender the ego for a moment and admit to our faults. We take responsibility for our actions. But when we incessantly apologize for who we are, we are buying into the belief that there is something unacceptable within us. As humans we make mistakes. This is how we learn. So what if we asked: Can I receive the lesson, embrace it, and not walk around ashamed, saying “I’m sorry” all of the time?.

I think there is no need to say sorry each time. Might be a sign of respect but it can better be meant. If you don't mean you are sorry what is the use of saying it?
I think the person you say it to will notice it at once.

I always think that we shouldn't justify our faults and should admit our mistakes when we make them. We are given a free tongue and if working properly we have unlimited speech. So why not not say two simple words that will mend a broken heart when we hurt someone and leave with the wonderful feeling of a clear conscience.
