A double thanks to CarolD and dgillz. I also throw out the "bad" stuff, but was thinking when I read your post, how valuable that stuff could be in step-work, AA or not. Even if you've gone through all 12 steps, I believe one should review/re-do, as time goes on.
Perceptions change, self-image can, and should, (if appropriate) be revised.
Growing is not over unless/until you think/decide it is. We all have our limits.
Good post!
