Brilliant piece. It's been in my inbox for a while, but I hadn't got round to reading it. So glad I finally did. I love that your daughter sees you for who you are and your kindness has created her kindness.
I love that your connection with your wife has given you the confidence and courage to be authentically you.
I feel my connection with my partner has also been an instigator in self-acceptance and self love.
You rock!
