You were saying something about the similarity between therapists (sic) and real world relationships .. I'm guessing you meant therapy relationships.... and what I want to say is a therapy relationship IS a real-world relationship, in every sense of the word, PLUS it's set up to be healing ... and in the end I think I was very fortunate to have the therapist I did. I don't know if he realizes that. I hope he does. I really would like him to know how helpful he's been, perhaps even just by being himself. I remember, once, I asked him why he became a therapist, and he told me that it was something a high-school teacher had said to him. Well, regardless of what the truth is, I now like to believe the thing was that C was the type of person who brought out the best in everyone.
