If you are familiar with the 12 Steps of AA, there is a "formula" that allows us to forgive ourselves and others for any and all transgressions or embarrassing silliness that occurred during our active alcoholism...it can also be used as an on-going process during sobriety.

It's good to "keep the memory green", so we remember why it's important to stay sober, lest we return to the insanity.
