Sunny, I'm glad T was able to give an appointment sooner to help you process the conversation you had with your mom. I wish I could hear something remotely similar from my own mom, but she doesn't admit anything, ever. Nevermind trying to talk to her about my childhood. She won't go there, even lets me know how therapy is such a waste of time and that I will only hurt myself by talking about it.

I love the relationship you have with your therapist. I find it enduring that he was symbolizing through all these grand images and while you were grounded and comforted just by being right there, at that moment with T.

Thanks for this!
