This is a continuation of the discussion on Gary Chapman's five languages of apology. If your apology language is Making Restitution, you find an apology most sincere when the person that has wronged you takes action to make it right. You’re not just listening for an admission of fault, but hey what can I do to make this better? What can I do to make this right? Or here’s what I’m going to do to make it up to you. Is that okay, do you think that will help? If you know someone like this and it feels like you are paying penance, it’s because you are. Back in 2003, Lakers star Kobe Bryant admitted to cheating on his wife and then purchased an eight-carat, purple diamond ring for his wife. It’s a physical attempt at the restoration of something lost. A group societal example would be I’m sorry we took away all your property during this war, we want to make restitution by returning as much property as possible and creating a fund. Want answers?
