This piece is such a clear depiction of the depth each person contains. You tell the whole truth as you know it, and the world is better for it.

Wow, wow, wow. Thank you for offering this piece of your story, Leslie. You write with insight, generosity, and enthralling details. I hope writing and sharing is as much a gift to you as it to your reader. Even with your words, you hold so much space for nuance, paradox, and the complexities of loving someone who is hurting (and learning to love yourself). 💛

Aly summed it up better than I could begin to try, so I'll just say DITTO, and thank you especially for doing the extra work (logistical, emotional, etc) of recording this in your own voice. (Also brb going down a rabbit hole of Jamie Fine's music, wow what a stunning voice she has!)
