Existence is circular. Day becomes night becomes day again. Life becomes death becomes life again. The circles are everywhere, even within your own life. If upon each recognizable pass you look back and have trouble relating to that past self, trust that very awareness as evidence you've learned something indispensable.

The mathematician in me loves this.
The writer in me is currently conversing with that past self, and learning much from him, both in what to do, but more so in what not to do.
And what better teacher than a conversation between the present and past version of ourselves! Have you seen my two essays on lessons for my past self and lessons for my future self? If not, I think you’ll enjoy those. 🙂 If you decide to write and publish something similar, I’d love to read it!
I had not seen the two essays you mentioned. I thoroughly enjoyed reading them both.
If I do try something similar, I will let you know.
I thought you might! I’m glad I could connect you with them. 🙂 Do let me know if you write and publish something similar; I’d love to read.
