What we were will always go with us, even if it's in the memory. Looking back as we walk makes us see how far we have come and how far we have walked. When we review what we were, sometimes we find ourselves with an I different from the present I, but that if we had not been able to get to where we are. There is no better way to find that I than through the letters, through what we write. Perhaps what hurt us before is now a simple healed wound. Thanks for sharing your texts, @zentalk
