I confess

I confess to Almighty God, and to you my brothers and sisters that I have sinned through my own fault, in my thoughts
(wait, what? this is just intermission? it’s not over?)
and in my words
(something is going horribly wrong up on that stage),
in what I have done
(eating bad gigantic m&m and choc chip cookies at intermission during Bailey’s play)
and in what I have failed to do
(resist the urge to eat for entertainment unless it’s really, really worth the calories).
I ask blessed Mary, ever virgin, all the angels and the saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God. amen

  1. Time for another confession…

    Were you able to recall the Confiteor from memory, of did you have to look it up??

  2. I recalled it from memory, but I double checked. I didn’t know it was called the confiteor. I thought it was called the Act of Contrition, but when I looked up that it was a prayer that I have no recollection of.
    i remember almost all the prayers that are in a standard Mass.

  3. The Act of Contrition starts off… “Oh, my God, I am sorry for my sins. For choosing to do wrong, and failing to do right.”…
