Why apologize?

Sometimes we say things that we regret. As my dad always said we forget to "engage the brain before placing the mouth in gear". Someone hurts us, and we get defensive instantly. We clamp up, and then say things we wouldn't dare say if we were hugging them. I've done it myself. Opened my mouth and crap would come out and hurt the very person I love.
But thats were apologies come into play. Saying "I'm sorry" means saying I still love you and I messed up. It takes a strong person to walk away and to forget a friendship. But it takes a much more stronger person to apologize, and to mend it. If we never apologized, and never meant it.. we wouldn't have very many friends left.
