It's hard to tell someone how much they mean to you unless it's a spouse or child. Sometimes I wonder if it's okay to feel the way I do, you know? I have trouble conveying most feelings, but this type of thing, along with hurt, sadness, fear and anger are hard too. I guess because I wasn't allowed to have those strong emotions as a kid.
I admire your strength,
