Thanks for that thoughtful and poetic message. I read it when I was out on a walk with my dog and I had to contemplate it for a while. Thank you for putting this process into such clear words. I like your metaphor about sunburn at night, that's very true. When we escape destructive situations, we're left with only the destructive armor that got us through. We can't take the next step in our evolution, until we're willing to cast that aside as well. But it saved us, so we're nostalgic for it. Thanks again for your kind words!
