Confession is good for the soul, they say. I'd imagine this is true. But my sins were too convoluted. And from the little I understand--too damning.

About This Quote

People are afraid of what others would think if they knew the truth. We are all guilty of this, but it is more common in some people than others. There are those who are too ashamed to confess the truth of their actions. I am sure that they feel that if they were to confess they would be left alone, without punishment for their wrongful actions, and that there would be no repercussions for their sin.

They fear that their sins will only bring shame upon them and the people who love them. This is not always true, but it is true enough to keep many people silent when the truth could free them from any shame.
