I had much the same thing happen to me, although not all in a week, over a period of YEARS - and it was truly terrible when it caught up with me.

I was so caught up in my own joy that I forgot to look around me.

To those who read this, your experiences over the past week serve as a good reminder that we all need to allow our emotions to flow and not hold them in. You've had three experiences in a week that many aren't asked to witness in a years time, or more.

Have two close therapists in my life and I believe it is harder on them/you than anyone else because, being trained to be "the strong one"; I don't know that the formal education reminds the professional that there are times of grief in their own lives (and with how it is dealt); Good going (in shedding well needed tears; you brought some to my eye as well)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14451443737130936346noreply@blogger.com
