Ben, I appreciate the work you do in relation to Bitcoin. However, this incident that you’ve described here on #nostr should have remained private in my opinion. There was no need to make a public apology.
It’s been my observation that those that make these type of public apologies have some sort of public figure identity that is either monetized, or are in some sort of public safety or trust position where their status in the “court of public opinion” needs to remain healthy. You may fit into one of the categories I’ve just described. Acknowledging what I’ve stated, one may also then conclude that your public apology will inevitably lead to one questioning the sincerity of your apology. Many have seen this script before, which is why I believe this incident should have remained private between you and that family you wronged.
We all make mistakes. You allowed your feelings/emotions override your self control. We all should acknowledge our shortcomings, be humble, and make those we break down whole again as best we can. No one else needed to know about this incident outside of your family, the family of that child you wronged and the eyewitnesses.
Lastly to answer your question, I’ve never done something similar to a child, but I have done things where I acted out of sheer emotion. I’ve learned from it and I consider myself better off because of the experience.
Keep moving forward, keep growing, don’t allow certain life experiences you wish you would have acted differently in prevent or slow your progression towards your goals.
#Peace and #Love
