I assume, everyone reminisces the past at one time or another?

Some so called therapists out there do more harm than good. I had one who seemed helpful, but when I shared about my childhood and young adulthood, which had a hefty amount of abuse, she reacted as if I were boasting about how popular I was. Here I was looking to heal from it and she reacted like an idiot. I am now my own best therapist!

I am so sorry this happened to you. Clearly, that therapist is a menace. 🤗
 

According to my numerology chart I am in era of intellect and wisdom and this is true. I've experienced many seasons in life and this particular time is similar to when I used psychedelics in my early twenties. 40 plus have passed since the last I was intrigued by the mind and its capabilities. Humans are influenced everyday, my dad, church and Christianity continues to influence me today. The difference between past and present; as a young boy I believed everything my dad said, nowadays attend church with my wife even though I don't believe. Why is it when I think about religion I think about political followers who conduct themselves in obedience to the power and authority that controls them.

imagine knowing all there is to know about your mind? To understand depth and full distance of what your mind can do? Without understanding the capability of the mind we cannot know its limitations. i suspect the mind is much more than what is taken for granted.

That's wonderful that you were able to find a good psychologist. The one time I tried therapy here, the therapist told me I should try attending church. When I told her I'm an atheist, she frowned and took a step back from me. (Seriously.) I didn't go back.

Wow, I'm really sorry you dealt with that. I have heard there are a lot of lousy therapists. I'm not sure what her qualifications were but the first one I went to verbally attacked me. I was probably 21. Didn't go to another one till my mid 40's. She was good but I quit going because I didn't feel anything was going to change.

While they may not change anything, there are some real good YouTube channels. If nothing else they are validating.
 
In this modern technological era, one's photographs are windows in one's past that can bring greater clarity and longevity to our ever fading neural memories. Just watching some old movies seeing clothing, cars, food, everyday products, likewise reminds us of how things looked so different just a few decades ago that can help recall our own personal experiences.
