It was only 24 hours, but in that 24 hours I was able to reconnect and reconcile who I was and my relationship to my best friend; my chosen sister. Our relationship has never been as better as it has been since Wednesday. When we saw Ghost, one the best (if not the best) bands I’ve ever heard, everything was washed away. The jealousy and fear of losing my loved one, the realization that I have won the ultimate prize. I will never lose my best friend, she is my family and will be with me until the better end.
The benefit is that this has improved my relationship with my partner, I feel better connected to her. I feel closer to her and I feel safer in our relationship.
For the first time in years, I do not fear losing my loved ones. I am content.
