Well I have no idea what happened myself, but I know Kappa Delta was founded on Christian principles. And part of being a Christian is forgiving others. Perhaps if you were still in undergrad it would have been something people could not look over, but for an adult to stand up and apologize and admit that they messed up shows a lot of class to me.

And it is said that "to err is human, to forgive divine" and I know it's hard for people to get over a lot of things, but fact is- no matter who you are, you mess up sometimes. I know I personally have messed up so many times I can't even count them. And some were before my time in Kappa Delta, others not. But one of the best things about KD is the love shared in AOT and the open arms my sisters have always held out to me after a problem. Some less enthusiastically than others, but nonetheless they've always been there, and that's always been something I've thought was wonderful about our sorority.

So while it may not mean much coming from someone who wasn't involved, the fact that you're risking rejection and criticism to formally apologize speaks volumes to me, and I would hate to see you leave our circle even as an alum. Just remember to never stop growing and know that even though your past may have its darker days that you can keep striving to that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest and make us all proud. And despite your past, I'm happy to call you a sister now and I hope you don't chose to leave no matter what, because clearly you've grown up and time heals all wounds... or at least it makes them less intense...

In KD love and AOT
