We had a sitter tonight. I asked to be taken to a movie and my husband circled the movie theater so that I could tell him all of the things I was scared to say aloud. Sometimes even I dont want to believe my story. Im always afraid that in the telling, I wont be able to stop crying if I start. Ridiculous. Now I know it only takes a few city blocks for me to compose myself. Paul just listened and used empathy words like, It sounds like and Im hearing. Normally, the kind of shit that drives me batty but tonight it helped. Hes a well trained advocate, that man. We then watched Guardians of the Galaxy because even in the midst of the most epic battles, you know that the good guy will win. I needed that tonight. If you believe that my work, my words, my story is important, I have to ask you for a favor. The next time you see my man, shake his hand, look him in the eye and thank him for holding me up because he does. Even when I cry, hysterical on the way to a much needed date night. Hes okay with helping me walk through the injuries I sustained when I was just a little, bitty girl. Blessed be.
