Q: He will often offer you counsel on how you can avoid sin in the future. Afterward, he will ask you to make an Act of Contrition. This must be performed sincerely, truly meaning what you say. If you don't know the words, write them down or ask the priest to help you. At the end of your session, he will probably recommend penance (to be performed as soon as possible). At the end of the absolution he will say, "I absolve you of your sins in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." If he makes the Sign of the Cross, follow suit. He will then dismiss you, saying something to the effect of "Go in peace to love and serve the Lord." Reply, "Thanks be to God," give the priest a smile, and exit the confessional. Return to the church and assume your prior seat. When you begin your penance, give thanks to God for forgiving you. If you recall some serious sin you forgot to tell, know that it has been forgiven with the others, but be sure to confess it in your next confession. If the priest gave you penance that consists of some prayers to be recited, say them quietly and devoutly. Kneel in the pew, hands clasped and head down, until you have completed your penance and have adequately reflected on your experience. Resolve to return to the Sacrament of Reconciliation often. Rise joyful and confident for the Lord loves you and has been merciful. Live for Him every minute of your life, and let everybody see how wonderful it is serving the Lord. Stay mindful. Don't use confession as a reason to excuse sins. Rejoice that you are forgiven and live as God intended you to to minimize the need for confession.
A: Listen to the priest. Complete your penance. Leave feeling better and living in the light of God's forgiveness.

Let them puddle on the floor for a luxurious look or choose a shorter style for a more modern take. Choose curtains in colors that complement your existing paint and decor. For instance, pick a color in your favorite photo or piece of artwork and choose curtains in that color. If you're not a big fan of curtains, opt for blinds instead. They're available in lots of different materials and colors, so you're sure to find a style you like. If your walls are mostly blank, an easy way to give them a makeover is to hang up artwork. Pick pieces that you love so you'll enjoy looking at them for years to come. You can opt for a large statement piece or even create a gallery wall with smaller framed pieces. Head to thrift stores to find cool artwork and frames for cheap. Monochromatic flooring can look drab. Whether you have carpet, vinyl, laminate, or wood flooring, you can easily break it up by adding a large rug in the center of your space or even a small rug under your desk or chair. If you don't have a lot of prints in your room, go for a patterned rug. If you do have a lot of patterns, stick with a solid-colored rug. A bench not only makes the room feel finished, it's functional, too. It can be used for seating or you can display a nice throw pillow and a few decorative pillows. If you need more storage space, use a bench that opens so you can put clothes, blankets, or other items inside when you're not using them. If you have artwork or knickknacks that you love, put them to good use by displaying them on your dresser. Aim to create visual balance by grouping items in threes and varying the height of the pieces. For instance, you could put a tall vase full of flowers in the center of your dresser and frame it with candles and photos. Add a few small collectibles, like statues or figurines, and voila! If you like a romantic, whimsy feel, install a chandelier in the middle of your ceiling. The soft glow and sparkle will make your room feel lush and elegant. If you're not into the idea of adding a chandelier, install some pendant lights or add a few lamps. You can buy new lampshades cheaply to transform your old light fixtures. Nothing breathes new life into a room like some greenery. Pick out a few potted plants or flowers and space them around your room. The possibilities are endless, so head to a garden store and find a few plants that you think are beautiful. Be sure to keep your room's light conditions in mind when choosing plants to ensure they'll thrive in your space. Don't forget to water them, either! For a minimalist look, opt for succulents. If you like something a little different, choose cacti.
