sunnydays,
that sounds like a major accomplishment.i think your T's smile was a smile of satisfaction, because he knows that you have reached a new stage in your own self-awareness.
what a wonderful response from him, and what's even more wonderful is YOUR response- you realize that it is a positive thing, even though it's so difficult and hurts so bad.
I often have a little trickle here and there, but the one time i broke down and couldn't stop the tears was the first time i reached for a kleenex.
as it turns out, there was only one in the box. i said "oh my GOD the irony!" kind of laughing at myself, and the situation, even in the middle of telling this horrible gut-wrenching story. my T pretty much jumped out of his chair, and was back with a brand new box in about 3 seconds. never seen him move so fast. and when he came back, he was still intense, and had my last thought in his head and reminded me of it.
those T's... man, they really know what they're doing! (well, when I understand what they're doing, anyways...!)
pats on the back,
-Li
