The last day of maslenitsa - forgiveness Sunday

The last day of maslenitsa week is a pretty special.
We call it forgiveness Sunday.
Everyone asks everyone for forgiveness.
The idea is sometimes we do something offensive even we don't notice that. 
It is the very day to forget all these insults and just start with a clean slate. (turn over a new leaf) (start over from scratch).
Nowadays it is just a tradition, just a ritual, I don't really think that you can get indulgence from everyone, but it won't hurt to try .

A funny video with scene about this:


So it's the time for me to ask for forgiveness there on  ;)
Please, forgive me!
