I did that once, went back over a decade to read what I had written, and I didn't even recognize the person who wrote them. It was a surreal experience, and I have not done it again. It was as shock that I had changed so much is what I consider a relatively short time, but it was a GOOD change. Just kind of a shock that is all.
I think it is so much easier to see change in others, or traits in others than it is to see them in ourselves. I understand that, when we have trouble seeing the negative traits in ourselves, it is uncomfortable to acknowledge, but why is it we don't see the good things either? Makes no sense.
