I think you fail to realize how strong you are and how much you have already accomplished. Are you waiting for perfection? I'm not trying to be sarcastic. I only ask because I know you and how much you expect of yourself--much more than you expect of others.

Cut yourself the same slack you would anyone else. You know that we all have weaknesses and we all are in pain to some degree.

Yes, I know. But when I get to thinking too much about my past and "where do I go from here?", these are the recurring patterns that seem to emerge.

That's why I saved a copy of our IM conversation from last week, to offer an alternative perspective to all that bad programming lodged in my head, and remind me that those who've knocked me around (emotionally and intellectually) are only "D-" students when it comes to me, and that it's people like yourself -- the "A" students -- whose opinions should count more.

Thanks again for being such an erudite scholar on me! Gold star!
