Finally Talking and it Feels GREAT!

I never had anyone that I could speak with about my brothers death...  Friends didn't understand and couldn't help, and parents never wanted to speak about it; it hurt them too much.  I bottled everything up and never spoke about anything that was on my mind regarding his passing.  Now, though, I'm in a program that encourages talking about past hurts and present struggles; it feels amazing.

During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection.
