i confess- i've always wanted to be an author on the confession blog. I'm ok confessing on my own to my own anonymous set of readers though. One thing I would love to confess is how my mind can't grasp religion. My heart gets it, so I hang on, but the total surrender is beyond me. Might always be. Maybe that's what faith is supposed to be for. I know some of you are religious. Confessing doubt this in real life has always been awful. Either they agree with me, and we end up spiraling downwards together in doubt, or they do not agree and they try to lift me to where they are. Both are hard, but I'd rather be lifted. Confronting the other harsh spiral has left me more than just a little upset. I don't think it makes me a bad person to question. I don't think it makes me a bad person to just have faith either.

I confess that I'm afraid one of the more tech savvy authors of this blog will still be able to figure out who I am.
even then it will only be like one or two people...and your secrets are safe with them.
test..test.. i question as well. maybe a public computer?
Really? No juicy confessions?
Wrong post.
I once thought d-hing made me pregnant.
