I put an extremely high value on this, as I feel you do, too. Every little while in my own therapy, something very powerful and moving happens between me and *him*. We may or may not put it into words, afterwards, but the memory of the feelings, and the sudden, although perhaps slight, opening towards new ways of feeling are the by far, far the most wonderful things that happen in my therapy- I think. I would never suppose that they can be completely understood and contained by words- the words are sort of pale, incomplete versions of an ineffable (to borrow your word) experience.

You wouldn't be you without the ongoing non-verbal experiences that lend color and meaning to your life. You shouldn't ever get near an apology for that!
