last night, i called Samaritans and i talked to a man who told me many of the same things everyone else else has. only, there was one thing that has stuck with me.
"you've learned from the experience, and that might be the only good that comes of it."
because this has been so trying for me, i keep expecting to come to some life-altering revelation. but, that's probably not going to happen. it's not that i'm giving up on anything or being pessimistic. i just have to start being more realistic.
i think the thing that helped the most was that he just talked to me. even though it was 1 in the morning, he didn't sound tired or irritated or anything. i felt like i knew him. i wish i had asked for his name when he asked for mine.
