Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! Your personal trainer (& your T) is entitled to think whatever gets her thru the day. What's the expression - other people's opinion of you is none of your business. You do your work, let her do hers. Don't look for excuses not to do your own healing. I mean me. Thanks, stormy! This idea keeps popping up, doesn't it? THEY ie T doesn't MEAN it, doesn't REALLY like me - well, your brain doesn't know the difference. Just like a broken bone will heal with a titanium screw in it.
hmm, so it doesn't matter whether t is genuine or not? Well, personal trainer better not be too far off the mark either, or I'm going to be too sore to come back the next time.

Anyway, does this mean it's a good idea to appreciate the positive that t sees in us, even if t might not see that positive if we knew t outside of the therapy context?
