Chili, i'd be fascinated to know how the AssClown is doing now? is he still with the AP?

one question i have that has really helped me detach, a question i roll over in my mind is:
just what is it i would be taking back?
it's a simple question but pondering it has helped me immensely.

I literally read this a few days ago and found it to be one of the most useful things I have read, so much so I was inspired to reach out directly to Chili and thank her. Could it be part of the healing library?
DDay 1/15/2020.

Still healing but in a better place
