Confession is personal
I truly believe that most of us have committed something or the other of which we may feel too embarrassed at a latter point of time. This is the time when we start treading the paths of maturity.
i have to sincerely confess that right form my childhood I have been doing things which have troubled my heart greatly. At times I even stole from my parents wallet or done really something not desirable for the child of my age.
However I have come to only one conclusion that the only way to get away with such troubling thoughts of the past is to simply accept the fact that you have had seroious shortcoming. In simple words I may say it would be great if we could share some of our true confessions with a dear friend or the one closest to you who may not actually put you down.
Howver I have come across people as well who are in a state when they cannot confess each and everything. Then the best choice is to confess it to yourself. For me it is like confessing not just to myself but also to God the ultimate power who can help you since none of us may know why we were born or what after death? But God is immortal and so the best person to do your confessions.
Can you suggest more ways please?

I had my tooth fixed
Yes it was a long pending problem which had surfaced only a year back during a train journey through the cold mountaineous ranges. I felt a gripping pain at first which I thought would vanish away after some time. However I instead of that it got aggravated and it was like killing me.
I was almost cursing myself. Though I began with silent screamings of prayer from my heart to God. I knew that somehow this has to go. Luckily I was accompanied by my Mom who is a practicing nurse. She tried to calm down the pain by insisting on some pain killers. Even that won't help me on that train trip.
Atlast seeing my silent groanings, a man who I thought initially as some one rude or as we say to a really boring one. I mean to say he was not even having a smile when we arrived at our seat. Forget it, he uttered something which neither my Mom nor I was able to understand. It was in english so sure of that.
I felt that now since he appears to me as some chemical scientist, it would not be prudence to ask again. But contrary to my feeling I asked him and he said clearly now. He said "Put one bulb of clove on the aching teeth". Though I had never used this spice, I wanted to give it a shot though my mom was not buying this.
After that we spotted a waiter from the train pantry and asked him to quickly bring some clove. However I felt a little better after that. The man took some time but may be after half hr he came with the clove bulbs which we gladly accepted.
I put the bulbs under my teeth and waited for some time. Yes the spice started working as a sedative causing some numbness in the tooth nerves and I felt a little better after some time. I thanked our scientist for timely opeing his mouth which otherwise I thought would open so rarely.
Finally we reached the city where we were destined to go and almost continued with this spice for the rest of our holiday. Though we contacted a dental physician, he suggested that it would take more than 10 days. So we made a decision to do the neccesary procedure once we are back. Now after about a year or so the work is complete and I feel a lot better.
I think the scientist was a real help to me. God bless him.
