new experience

Two posts in one day -- I guess I’m on a roll.

I had a unique experience. I was talking to a person who let me have my feelings. I didn’t get a lecture or be denied what I felt.

She said I was allowed to be angry -- how dare the world continue on with Starsky gone!
She said I was allowed to be depressed and want to hide and not have Christmas without Starsky.

It was strange having my feelings validated (to use the current terminology).

It made me almost think I had the right to grieve.

Strange, that.
