highlights

he would argue the point.
and i know he'd claim some much prettier
moment as his favorite of the day.

but i had a favorite moment that you
wouldn't think would be it.

it's when he told me something that
didn't feel good today.

it hurt at first. and i felt like crying.
i had been tryin' so hard, and it felt
sucky after tryin' so hard.

here's the good part....

i knew he'd never say it unless he meant it.
he doesn't use words to hurt on purpose.
if he's sayin' it, he means it.

and because i know that and trust it....
i could hear him.

i didn't think it was fair and asked him
about it.
he didn't back down.
and explained what he meant.

oh.
oh.
oh that.

oh yeah.
maybe he had a point.

and he explained more.
oh yeah. he definitely had a point.

i agreed, and apologized.
and got the point...and will try to be
more aware of it from now on.

later on i pointed that out to him.
said 'ya know what was the best part of
the whole thing...when you told me....
and i heard you.'

he said he noticed that.
good thing. it was a pretty awesome
thing to notice.

to me it showed a lotta respect on both
sides.
he respects me enough to say it when it's
hard...and i respect him enough to hear it
when it's hard.
and.
i know that's returned both ways.

i don't remember ever trusting anyone quite
so much.

funny.....it felt so yucky at first.
now it's my highlight of the day.
