catharsis (an ode to sue)


after talking with sue on the phone for the last hour or so, all the stress and unwelcome pressures of school, work, and the future just evaporated. i feel so much lighter and optimistic--a combination of both, a feeling of empowerment. i know that i can get my college transfer apps out, and my homework done, and my schedule of life and work synced with that of homework and school.
i can't pinpoint why exactly sue has so much power to transform me. her soul is so in tune with mine--we don't share every struggle in our lives, but we share a similar perspective on how to approach them and move past them when it's time. the last time i talked with her before today was almost two weeks ago--and god, i've missed her.
she is that invisible support that some people get from their parents, their friends, their boyfriends--and every time i get off the phone (or, better yet, see her or drink tea) with her, i feel so much more like myself. she resets me, and reminds me of who i am.
i love her.
