I sent her this email shortly after posting this post:

T,

When I was driving home after session, one statement you made today hit me like a ton of bricks: "You're worth more than the risks."

I've had a lump in my throat ever since I realized what that meant. I think if I saw you again right now I would just bawl.

Do you realize that no one in my life has ever said anything that kind, loving, or compassionate to me?

You have completely disarmed me. Do you know how much of an impact you make on me?

You think more of me than I think of myself. Words cannot express how grateful I am for you.

And you don't understand why I want to hug you sometimes and not let go?

Amazing grace. I see it.

Love, Chopin
