Hi, Fledgling! I remember you from the humaworm forum. :)
Yes, I agree that there is an emotional aspect to healing. I have also been digging through my past this week and trying to come to grips with some painful stuff. At the urging of my pastor I have been beginning to deal with things that happened a long time ago instead of keeping them bound up inside. I think this really is pivotal to my healing process. :)
