For John Ball I don’t think I could’ve expected a kinder, more loving reply than the one you sent. I told you I couldn’t. You said okay. I told you I was burned out. You said get some rest. I told you a story about how things went wrong. You said it’s a pattern and someday this will make sense. You helped me to exhale. You helped me sleep better. You gave me enough hope to carry on.
