Some things in my own life are easier to see through someone else’s questions. The experiences are familiar to me, yet the relationships a visitor asks about may be ones I have never considered. AI can develop those relationships into a reading I can follow, giving me a chance to reconsider what I already know about myself. My own perspective also changes with time. A passage I wrote years ago can mean something different after a later experience. Revisiting that passage helps me consider what has changed in my thinking. I become a reader of my own archive and continue to learn about the life I have recorded. Saved Views preserve the questions people asked and the readings they prompted. Over time, these become part of the archive themselves. In a few years, I will be able to revisit how these experiences were interpreted at this point in my life.
