Thanks, Calista. She's thinner than I am but I bet she's stronger. I'd never really want to hurt her but the feelings came up so suddenly. I know I can scribble again and tear paper. We are going to finger paint next time.

ECHOES: Thank you. I know! There are possibilities for healing but I have to be close to my T to do that. That's the awful part. But I can do it! I never thought I'd be able to hold her hand or hug her. Being close is something I want and am afraid of at the same time.
