Dear Ed:

When I read your recent post, the one I replied to (right above), it seemed to me that you felt down, discouraged. You wrote: “I still feel like I did everything wrong, like if I had been kinder or stronger ..” what I hear you saying is something like: what’s the point of the explanations, the understandings… when I feel (and think) the same as before.

I just came back from a walk in this very warm/ hot day (not too hot for the walk) and I thought about it. It occurred to me that if you found a meaning to the better understanding, a meaning in understanding people and life better beyond feeling better, that could give you… a motivation to move on, in a certain direction toward a meaningful goal or value.
