This is good to hear Tammy and much to be proud of yourself for. I am currently sifting, sorting, separating and identifying all my stuff and I've been finding in all of it self-forgiveness and the process of letting go. I mean really letting go, like you. As for forgiving my abusers I'm not even yet sure how well, I've done with this, bc I've done exceptionally well in the past when I blamed myself for everything and now that I've been confronting my trauma(s), quite honestly I think and vent in written form some very mean thoughts about them. And, yet all I'd ever wish or really want for them is wellness and life.
Also, Tammy, good going on the self-regard and love aspect. —That one's still a real tough one for me in some areas.

Now excuse me for a min., but this really sounds odd to me, and all in the same sentence. But Tammy, I get what you've actually said here and appreciate your kind words. The point here is who I am today and my serious wrong doing then, some 20 yrs. ago, simply does not define whom and what I've become.
In fact I'm certainly different and have been worlds away from many selfish, wrong behaviors and now for many yrs.
Thank you, Tammy!
