A priest was being honoured at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician, who was also a member of the congregation, was chosen to make the presentation and give a little speech at the dinner. He was delayed so the priest decided to say his own few words while they waited.
"I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when stopped by the police, had almost murdered the officer. He had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his place of business, had an affair with his boss's wife, taken illegal drugs, and gave VD to his sister.
I was appalled. But as the days went on I knew that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people."
Just as the priest finished his talk the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately began to make the presentation and give his talk.
"I'll never forget the first day our parish priest arrived," said the politician. "In fact, I had the honour of being the first one to go to him in confession."

Confessions of to Friends:
We just started dating a few days ago
But I'm already in love with you. If you felt half of what I feel for you for me, I'd die happy.
i don't know if i can get into my college now. i didn't look at the website in time, and now i'm screwed. i don't know what i'll do. i'm so embarassed. i don't know if this can be saved. i'm thinking not. i'm so screwed.
i work at mcdonalds and steal so much money, simply by neglecting to ring up orders or parts of orders.
i dont feel bad, at all.
i regret that i didnt start doing this sooner. we're getting cameras next week.
i want a new job.
