- A.’s phone call this afternoon and the opportunity to go with her to the Manhattan Forensic Psychiatric Hospital on Ward’s Island to visit her friend M.
- The opportunity to talk to A, en route to the hospital and back, and then over dinner before the meeting about her struggles with depression, and being able to share my experience, strength, and hope in that regard.
- The message from Alicia on OKCupid, and the messages from Taren and Ruthie the day before.
- OKCupid – as galling as it is to be on a dating site, the experience is broadening. I’ve already learned so much and I’m growing to face down my dread terror of rejection. Also, I’m aware of the degree to which I am attracted to unhealthy people, and can feel that shifting.
- St George’s Chapel, where Saturday Beginner’s was held this morning and where JP Morgan was almost assassinated.
Many thanks,
