叶公好龙的故事告诉我们一个道理，做人要诚实，实事求是，表里如一，不要盲目地去追捧、崇拜一些事物，只唱高调，不务实际。对自己真正喜欢的事物，不要只停留在表面，而要深入地了解它的内在。

How should we apologize? What's the best way to say "sorry" in a casual situation? 
Expressions we use: 

My bad / That's my bad (casual). 
Hey, uh, Tim, I accidentally ate the food you made for yourself for lunch. Hh... my bad. I won't 
Honey, I forgot to take out the garbage again tonight. My bad. Look—I'll do it in the morning.

I'm sorry + forgive me (more serious, intimate)
I'm sorry, I broke your favourite coffee mug, hun. I'll get you a new one, and it'll be even better.
Paul, I'm sorry for missing your birthday party, I completely forgot about it. Can you forgive me for that? I... I need to be a better brother.

I'm so sorry I let your parrot escape! I'll go look for her. 
I'm so so sorry about that, Riley—next time I'm going to be late, I will call you.
