I was looking for my book of Robert Frost poems this morning because I'm working on learning a new poetic form and need to borrow some lines from a favorite poet. Anyway, I found the book, and inside it I found some stuff I had typed up for therapy last March. (I had lent t the book back then, so I guess when she brought it back to me I stuck these papers in it.) Anyway one of them was a letter I had written to t at that time, that I never gave her but talked about the contents instead, and I re-read it just now and I sound so YOUNG. Isn't that funny? It was only a year ago, not even a full year ago. But I sound so psychologically young in the letter - that's a cool thing because if I wrote her a letter today it would sound very different - I feel so very different from the person who wrote that letter. It's amazing. Absolutely amazing. Just thought I'd share!

It was also after the first time we just sat in silence for a few minutes - I told her how nervous I was sitting there feeling my feelings and not talking and how I wished I could crawl under the blanket on the couch and hide. I've really grown from that place - to being able to take in and realize the feelings of acceptance coming from her and having those same feelings of acceptance for myself.

Well I gotta head to work now but I wanted to share this. It was cool to find.

Doesn't that make your day, to discover something like that? How cool for you.

I like fences make good neighbors but I hate that one about the stopping in the snow without a farm house near and horse thinking things queer.
Which is not the point of your post, but it is what I thought about R. Frost poetry. But I am glad you see a difference and that it seems a difference you are happy about.

I know!! And I always think I'm so mature when I write something!
