Exercise #169: Self Knowledge
Posted 7/21/06

Write a letter you wish you could mail.

This letter can be to anyone, whether living or dead, fictitious or real.  The only requirement is that this be a letter which you cannot actually mail to the person for some reason. Who would you most like to write to? A deceased loved one, an estranged relative, a missing friend, a historical figure?

I consider this exercise self-knowledge because in choosing who to write to, and in choosing what to say, we will need to examine our selves.
