Hi Pinksoil,

Welcome back! What a beautiful connection. I love your T's intuitive offer of an object from the room and the fact that it is a shell. A shell represents protection--an outer layer to shield from harm. I like to think your T is sending his love and protection with you as you go out into the world. What an awesome relationship you have. I have also been battling a big depression so I am sending you safe hugs.
