Wow, that was powerful.
It sounds as if you really do know what you want. You want to be a whole adult, and you want to be able to hurt without the hurt overwhelming you.
You don't want to forget, but you don't want to be consumed. Be angry, but not be filled with hate.
The list (mine was verbal, I didn't write it out) actually gave me power. The more I talk about it the more it just becomes conversation. It's the only thing we talk about any more, but it still comes up from time to time as a way to understand my reactions to things.
It's OK. You will do it when the time is right for you.
