We do them and yet don’t, many times! It depends, upon the
consequences- which we calculate mentally, before doing them! Less loss, ok,
here I confess! Huge loss, which can’t be fixed- Alright, I am never going to do this
one and keep it hidden like a precious stone of memoir thrown in the ocean!

| Should I, Shouldn't I? |
How do confessions originate- have we thought of it – ever? Well,
they come from our will power! “Resistibility” is the word if I may put it aptly.
Had I resisted before that moment, it would have never been that moment and
hence no further thinking, no traumatic heartburns, no choking guilt and hence
no confessions.
But as a matter of fact, we don’t bloody resist! MANY TIMES!
A funny thing here is that even while resisting (or not resisting for that matter)
we are calculating, in our heads, the fun we are going to have, the pleasure we
will get if we don’t resist. So if we resist, we regret, if we don’t, we still
regret!
Its just that
No resistance > Pleasure>Guilt>Confession>Consequences
Resistance> No pleasure>Regret (Consequence)
So basically there is no way out!!
So isn't that better, to not resist, commit the crime, enjoy
and then regret about it? At least you had the pleasure right? And then as per
your mental calculation of consequences, you may further decide to or not to
confess the same.
And let me just add to clear the airs, its not the confession which people do to a priest in a church or in a temple who don't do any harm in return to them, Its just an easy way of melting away the guilt overload by not directly confessing it to the person to whom they have done wrong. Since they know that priest will just nod listening to them they go ahead and so called confess, but that is NOT a confession. A confession will be one if made to the victim , to the person who is in capacity to actually make you face the consequences. And if you think its too much if a consequence, chuck it, don't confess!! But try stop living with it, try to avoid their multiplication & resist at times! After all, we cant have all the fun right!
But......I think I still don’t have a concrete answer to this one! If anyone reading
this has, please do let me know. Confess!!!!
