One young and beautiful, but frivolous woman decided to repent and went to church to confess. When she returned home, her husband, smiling, asked her: “Well, what sins did you commit, why did you decide to confess?” “Nothing special,” answered the wife, “mere trifles.” Father first asked if I was really faithful to my husband. I, of course, answered yes. Then he asked: “Do I like to tell lies?” I admitted that I loved him, and the priest granted me absolution.
