Apologies

Where did that dumb "never apologize" come from?  Gibbs on NCIS?  The Marines?

Fiorella understands that if one has done something untoward, excuses are--well--no excuse, but that a simple apology is called for and can clear the air.  It's a form of courtesy--of extending a peaceful hand to whomever one has, usually inadvertently, offended--and she wishes politicians and nations would take up the practice too.

Fio herself apologizes to everyone and everything--even the table leg when she accidentally knocks into it.
