On a scale of 1-10, how many of the things that you did when you were much younger would you do all over again if you could travel back in time?

Whatever your answer may be, I am sure the one reply synonymous with almost all six billion people on the planet won't be "10."

And safe to say the reason for that is the little reflecting mirror inside of us all called conscience.

It pricks on you harder than a bouquet of thorns for all the right reasons, right?

"I even went to church to confess, I went to my late father too to confess," he added.

However, those moves for amends haven't yielded much.

Watch the video for his full confession.
