What if, to apologize can be to simply express a wish for social relations or friendship–could that be?

On Sunday, my friend told how that, between himself and another worker on the job, there was ill-will, and how that, G0D spoke to him, telling him to go and make an apology. But he responded: “An’ I said: ‘Lawd, but I didn’t do nuthin’, she’s the one that, got mad at me.’”. Then he completed his story, telling how that, after stewing over the matter for the remainder of the day, the next morning, he walked over and made the apology, thinking it was done and that was that. But, then come afternoon: “She come an’ apologized for being how she was; an’ ever since then, goin’ t’work was a whole lot easier.”, and drawing his points that, “I need t’always show myself ready t’do whatever it takes t’make a friend. You can hate on me all you want, tryin’ t’get me to bring out my evil treasure, but eventually, you’re gonna get tired out and, if I keep showin’ you love, sooner or later, I’m gonna win over because G0D made love stronger than hate.”.
