I did this Course of like..self improvement (uhg).. and one of the excercises was to imagine yourself at a table where you invite former yourselfs that are embaressing, or shameful, or whatever, and just invite them to sit down with you and embrace them, and accept them.  Sounds hokey, but it was a helpful excercise of self-reflection. 

 I spent a lot of nights analyzing my past selves ... I think this is a fabulous mind exercise  

 It helps if you're a pretty visual person.  I used to be so much prettier. 

 Funny I was looking in the mirror and analyzing my looks, I feel prettier now than I did then. I was very different.  

 My insides are prettier--that's for sure. 

 Haha, I was always a kind person, but I was super selfish. Then I had a few years where I was a menace. Now, I am way more at peace within. 

 

 I sympathize with this.  I'm on my way to peace.  I pray for Grace.  Wholely trying to wash the inside of the vessel so the outside can be clean-type of thing. 

 This sounds great, not an easy thing to do though. Good on you for getting through it 🫂 

 Work in progress my friend. Thanks.
