Do I rewrite?

I thought I had hit a gold mine when I realized that the writing I did back in 2011 is still available in my email. It can go up as blog posts, as is, without much editing at all, I thought.

And then…

I’m not the same person I was then. I don’t want to misrepresent myself, and besides, it may not make sense to me the same way. Even the same concepts may come out differently if I write them now.

So… do I repost in a new venue, here, the thoughts I had then? Or do I think through them again and rewrite them?

I’ve shifted. The world looks different now; the 3D lenses have changed their shades. The focus has tightened here and faded away there. There’s blurring… wait… that’s water. Lick… salty water. My eyes are leaking.
