I guess that more or less explains my struggles where my energy is so present some days, and yet I feel so emotionally paralyzed most days.
You've been such a wonderful friend to me, and I feel like I don't properly communicate how much you help me with your encouragement and positive reinforcement.
To live His gift, a gift that comes from giving and the rewards that inherently come from that is such a joy. Seeing someone and serving them specifically with your heart and soul creates the most wonderful of give and takes.
To be able to do so safely, intimately and successfully requires being able to step out of ourselves, losing ourselves in that giving in a way that trusts no end result, just that it's good.
What a pure spot to be in and what joy it brings to my inner child.
