> I recently spoke with a friend who was still dwelling on something that happened thirty years ago. “Why do you care?” I asked him. “That was four versions of you ago. That person doesn’t exist anymore. Move on.”

Do you think this actually helped your friend? In any way?

Of course! It helped your friend realize what kind of person you are and hopefully spurred them to find better friends who possess actual human empathy.
