I talk to people, in therapy and elsewhere, about accepting all the different parts of themselves. Sometimes, people use the healthiest, most loving parts of themselves to nurture and comfort the frightened and wounded parts of themselves.
Today, I’m meeting with many skilled and experienced group therapists during a day-long retreat at our new home. I’m sure we’ll be sharing different parts of ourselves. I hope all the different parts of our home work well throughout the day.
What different parts do you see in today’s different photos?
Here is one of the different parts of jazz pianist Lyle Mays‘s Alaskan Suite.
All the different parts of Alaskan Suite are here, live, in Boston.
Feel free to express different parts of yourself in a comment, below.
Thanks to all who helped me create the different parts of this blog post and — of course! — to YOU.
May all your parts enjoy the group retreat and community today Ann 💕
All my parts enjoyed every part of the day, Val! Thanks for all the parts of all your lovely comments.
Sounds like a fun day. Enjoy.
Thanks, Ray!
You sum life up well, Ann.
Sum times, Mark.
Seeing Totoro in your blog has made my day!!!
I feel happy from way deep whenever I see Totoro.
Seeing you in my blog always makes my day, Eleanor!
A day long retreat sounds about perfect. Hope it all goes well for you, Ann.
All the different parts of the retreat went great! Thanks for another perfect comment.
The part I like about my day the most in this moment is sharing it with you here.
I’d love to be part of your day long retreat! Sounds like many parts making a whole lot of sense — and fun!
You always make a whole lot of sense, Louise! Thanks for sharing these moments with me.
Hi Ann, I would like to retreat. Can I come over?
Yes!
I hope the session at your home goes well today. What a beautiful location!
Today, I am using Hagen Daz on a stick to comfort the wounded parts of myself. 🙂
I’m glad you’re comforting the wounded parts of yourself. I try to do that as often as possible.
I think that crossing light is going to need some new parts….
New parts are good sometimes, Lisa! ❤
As you know in the theater there are no small parts. That’s something we should keep in mind in life too: we all have our part to play.
You play a big part, Chris.
Nobody tells me when to walk and when not to walk. Nobody!
Jeff tells me when the parts hit home. Jeff!
Thank you for this very ANN-couraging post! ♥～(‘▽^人)
I am partial to your New-Bloggy-Cat-egorically terrific comments!
I’m always playing my part, just sometimes I’ve too many parts to play…
I understand every part of this comment.

Would you think it too fishy if I said ‘different parts’ was sprat?
