Call the Priest, Humor Potd

Oh, Those New Years Resolutions!
Now, must call a Priest and ask for Absolution!

As If perfection, I could ever in a year achieve!
Will be saying “Bless me Father,” on humble knees!

Hi Paul! I write in plain English. The clearer, the better. I don’t write to confuse people with Old English, nor flowery Vocabulary. Appreciate you saying it was witty. And congratulating me. Merci....Pangie

Unkept resolutions -- the bane of all of us. ... As my Catholic fellow workers used to tell me: Make sure someone is behind that Confession window!... Esp. today. It might be 'Artificial Intelligence.' Wouldn't that be ironic?! Congrats on POTD, Pangie, gw

Humor, indeed! You do not want absolution? Ha... Ha...! A realistic, rational and thought-provoking reflection also, I think, on the present meaning-lost sacrament of confession. Congratulations!
