Another thing to consider: Time gives one personal perspective on the events of one’s life. When I left the company I co-founded last year, I was really raw about it. My Facebook activity reflects that. My feelings and opinions about that experience have changed, and I wouldn’t say or do half the things I said or did back then. If a new friend asked me about the experience, they would receive a seasoned and more accurate reflection on the event. Time can’t heal all wounds if the emphasis is on picking over the past like vultures, rather than moving on.
