Hi Antigua, light-bulb moments sure are fun to watch from the sidelines, congratulations :)
I think it's important to be constantly vigilant about honestly and compassionately identifying what stuff we, ourselves, are bringing to the table, and that our perception is often very damaged. It sounds like your T was able to hold you safely while you did that, and that's really cool. I think it's also really important to bravely keep scratching away at those things that make us most uncomfortable, even though that's what we spend the most time and energy backing away from. For doing so usually exposes a crack or a hidden door, a way over or around those things that seem so huge and so scary and so overwhelming, yet hold the key to the greatest growth and change.
Really cool stuff.
Do you participate in NaNoWriMo? It's a challenge to write 50,000 words during the month of November, it's one of those things that started out really small and is now kind of huge, but still a lot of fun. You (and anyone else here who writes!) should think about joining in! I'm not sure how to link?
