Chapter Thirty
Please explain in detail and in your own words what you think Ida meant when she said that "Apologizing is like spring cleaning."
I think she ment that apoligizing is sometimes easy but it is also really hard, and it is like spring cleaning because it can seem easy but is actually very hard.
I think what Ida meant was that apologizing to the trees took all the meaness out of her heart. This is like spring cleaning because you clean up and throw away junk.
I think that she meant that apologizing is like once you get started is hard to keep going then stop because when you get started you just want to finish it but you also don't want to do it at all.
