...she saved.

I wasn't entirely into the theory, about which I read some - the therapist made a big deal about my anima, though - but the theory didn't matter so much as saving the marriage, now in its 40th year.

In these terrible times, no matter what comes down, my marriage, and thus our therapist, made my life worth living.
