Yes, because it's the sharing of what I'd "discovered" that is what matters. She was as delighted as I was, it was a sign that I could see things I couldn't see earlier, and I got to bask in her warm delight It was a connection between us because it had to do with both of us. We could discuss what had made me angry and why, etc. Eventually I would be able to recognize right away what I was feeling when I was feeling it and let her know and that's the entire goal of therapy, to know one's self and what one is feeling and be able to share it with appropriate others (the person you love, are angry at, enjoy, etc.).
