What a smart group therapist you have! It must be nice to have another mental health professional who gets it.
I have a vague memory that at some point in one of our more serious ruptures I told my therapist that things would never be the same. He agreed and said that things rarely remain the same. But that there's no way to know, in the long run, whether the change will end up being for the better or not. He's got this whole long story about that. About a farmer and his son, who is hurt in an accident, and the imperial army who doesn't impress the young man because of the accident, and so on and so on. I don't think he's ever finished the whole story.
I hate that darn story. But he's right I suppose.
I have faith in the two of you to make the best of those changes. And to preserve the things that are most important.
