Sorry Letter

Dear Aboriginals,




We the government of Australia wish to apologize for the wrongs our past leaders have done to your people. We have taken your land from you, stolen the very means of your exsistence. Stolen your land and forced you to move from it, and because of that we the people of Australia and its leaders wish to say sorry. Sorry we have taking away your house, means of food, and property. We are sorry we have taken your children from their homes and forced them into our school. We have stolen everything from you both physicaly and mentally. You came to us with an open mind and we shut ours to your strange world. We called you savage and inhuman because we did not understand your unquie world. For all this and much more we the people of Australia and the government wish to apologize and say sorry.
Not amount of words can every fix the wrongs done to you, we known, but its a step in the right direction. The government of Australia wants to find peace and blance between the two of us. Dear Aboriginals, natives to this great land that is now home to all kinds of man and women, please find it in your hearts to forgive all the horrible things the government has done to you. Live not in the past but rather try and look toward the furtune with us, try and understand the sorrow we fell for our past action, try and understand the feeelings we are now tring to express. If we could we would rewrite history but such a task is impossible, so are least now with this letter and a brave face forward perhaps we the government and you the people would build a new furtune.
