Integrity takes a lifetime to earn but less than a second to lose. It was my grandpa that always reminded me to ne straight shooter. That way everyone respects you even if they don't like you.
That is the dang truth dub!
We all mess up in life! It’s the things we do and say to correct our wrongs that keep our integrity in tact and our trust with others!
In other words; its ok to mess up every now and then as long as we do what it takes to make it right! "Man I am sorry" goes a long way with most folks.
