Simplified meaning
Making mistakes is a natural part of being human and everyone does it. However, owning up to those mistakes is something special and not everyone is able to do it easily. For example, if you accidentally hurt a friend’s feelings, it’s common to make excuses or deny it at first. But admitting you were wrong and saying sorry shows a lot of strength and maturity. This honesty can help repair relationships and build trust. So, being able to admit your faults is a powerful quality that can improve your interactions with others and make you a better person.
