Hello all:
I just listened to Tiger Woods on the news channel making his apology to the world. He had a very sad face, he was very focused on what he was saying and at the end he sniffled as if to fight back tears. He then went over to his mother and hugged her seemingly shedding some tears. He hugged a few other friends and maybe family members. The one thing that struck me about what he had to say during his apology was....."my actions will be what will show my wife I am truly sorry and not words."
That is a true statement, but will it be enough to help his wife forget and someday forgive him? Would you if you were in her shoes??? We all have our own opinions about what he has done, and we have probably said how "we" would handle the situation. But the bottom line, you never know until you are the one walking in those shoes.

I think it must be so hard to experience a very private grief in the public spotlight. It must be very hard to have to apologize to the world for something that should concern only you and your family. I cannot imagine having my private life so intensely displayed. I feel for the whole family and wish that they could be left alone to work out their problems with the dignity that privacy provides.

I totally agree with you on this. I think we will never know unless we are in the same situation as Wood's wife.
Women have the wonderful gift of compassion and they are allowed to use it, men on the other hand are thought cowardly if they show compassion. Or so they think, real compassion isn't cowardly, it's kingly. Pity we fail to see our potential.
