Love this! The capitalist nature of the relationship bothers me too. Love these lines- “The insights come like fireflies - they are bright, brilliant, and fleeting. But you can't catch them all and preserve them in a jar to examine later. They become part of you, changing you in ways you can't always pinpoint.”
Glad I started my day by reading this piece. There’s possibly no bigger blessing than finding *your* therapist. I’ve always found it confusing (and a little sad) that one of my most meaningful relationships exists, like you said, in the context of a capitalistic transaction. Really cannot tell you how much I relate. Thanks for writing this.

Thank you, Ila! <3

Bah. I am sad and happy at once that this is relatable. <3 Thank you, Maanav.
The firefly analogy really hit home :)
There's a cool firefly walk that they do in Delhi that I signed up to and then didnt attend. Very much on my mind these fireflies. <3
You just gave me idea for weekend. This is the one you talking about ?

Looks like I can use your therapist 😊
Ha! I can attest that she is awesome.
This makes me so happy. Xx
