David said in therapy today that the way I am dealing with Joe is a perfect example of a healthy unblocked personality. My methods are exact aims of therapy. He said it proudly— and it felt like a pat on the head. I have hidden no feelings. I have owned all my voices in dealing with Joe. I’ve allowed all my varied and contradictory feelings to be valid.
