Harms to Others
We might next ask ourselves what we mean when we say that
we have "harmed" other people. What kinds of "harm" do people
do one another, anyway? To define the word "harm" in a practical
way, we might call it the result of instincts in collision, which cause
physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual damage to people.

It is the highest form of self-respect to admit
mistakes and to make amends for them.
