As you’ve connected with the experience of a wall painted with the pictures of your life, relax for a moment in front of the wall and take time to acknowledge how you feel about it. Completely absorb its meaning.
When you are ready, answer the following questions.

I suggest you spend a day or two with this experience if you can. We can experience a wide range of emotions when reviewing our life. For some of us, the experience might be happy. For others, it may be sad. We might have an experience that is full of judgment or we might feel complete peace. Your feelings my be many or they may be few, but there will be something to feel in this experience. Allow yourself to feel it.
Sit with the feelings you have right now. There is no need to completely abandon yourself or become overwhelmed, just be aware. A good way to ground ourselves when emotional memories rise is to write. Don’t write about how it felt to be there, but articulate how you feel now, looking back at who you’ve been and the life you’ve experienced.
There is one more question I would like you to consider before we move into the next part of the practice. However, I do recommend spending a day or two with this contemplation of feelings. Write your contemplations below. As you feel ready, you can move onto the final question of our practice.

In the final stage of our meditation practice, I would like you to imagine yourself as an outside observer. Imagine that you are a complete stranger who has walked up to this wall, to find the life story of a person you do not know painted upon it.
What do you think of the images you see painted here? How do you feel about this person and their story?
