As of late, I have been short-tempered, sarcastic, and more than a bit self-centered in my dealings with many of those around me.

I regret this. I wish I had not said some of the things I've said. I am imperfect, but it is the role of the shaman to guide others with insight and wisdom; I cannot do this, or certainly not very well, if I cannot guide myself with restraint. We never walk the same path twice, for when we return down it, it is not the same path; I shall strive to avoid succumbing to the temptation to allow my failings of character to override my good sense in the future.

To those my failings have impacted, I am sorry. Forgive me.

I am, after all, imperfect.

I have seen worse minmatars. You just live as you were taught to.
I understand that what I have said about your people was not entirely correct, and I would like to apologize for it as well.

Nobody is perfect.
But I am happy that you are changing for the better.

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

We're all human, and by that definition, imperfect.
From my side, I'm glad to hear you say this, as I do enjoy your presence in the Summit channel and I was worried about you.

See it as a learning experience, a way to embetter your path as a guide for people, because the best guides are those who had to run through difficult times themselves, both by external as internal factors and learned from it.

May your spiritual guidance light your own path as much as you light the path of others.

To admit a mistake, express regret and commit to change takes true strength and courage; these are the qualities we seek in our spiritual leaders.
I'm happy to put any doubts I may have had about you to rest.

Ancestors walk with you, Shaman.

There was an old saying that my parents used to repeat to me; something along the lines of, "I don't give them hell, I just tell the truth and they think it's hell".

Keep up what you're doing my friend. Let the truth be told though the heavens fall.

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.

Though I don't believe I've said anything insensitive to you, I shall take the safe path and apologize now.


Now you're sorry, and I'm sorry.

Call me Joe.
