I finally went to confession! Here's what happened...

That's good though. Confession can be a very intimidating act because it actually means saying out loud the very things that you regret and are sorry for. It's tough because it can be very awkward and embarrassing telling someone else those things that you wish you had never done. However, despite it's awkwardness and difficulty, it is a beautiful sacrament because it is a statement of God's mercy and forgiveness.

Thank you for your reply Lysandershapiro, kind and sensible as always.

May God give me the strength to follow His Commandments, I have a clear feeling this was a major change in my life.
 
Believe me, he tried!

And yet i bet it felt good to conquer that fear that was not from God, using strength that came from God. You took one step and God helped you to do the rest.

And i do agree this is the beginning of a new chapter in your life :)
