From the Confession Booth
Real souls. Real weight. Real release. Every name protected forever.
"I did not stand up for a friend when a group of people were being unkind about them behind their back. I stayed quiet and let it happen because I was new to the group and afraid. My silence was complicity. They eventually told me what had been said and I pretended I had not been there."
"I laughed at a joke made at someone else expense when I should have said something. The person being laughed at was in the room. They laughed too but their eyes did not. I laughed anyway because I wanted to belong to the group more than I wanted to be decent."
