I talked with K tonight. She had just finished teaching at the community college in the Loop where she works as an adjunct professor and she was waiting to meet a friend for a late dinner and drink. Class had gone really well and she was upbeat.
It seems like forever since I have had a conversation with K where she wasn't sobbing or so deeply depressed she could barely talk. I know that K is still a long way from healing from her breakup with KC, but she is making progress.
I'm thankful that K is excited about teaching and I'm thankful that she is taking steps toward regaining her self confidence. K is a beautiful young woman, on the inside and outside. The hurt she suffered when KC broke up with her will never fully go away, but thankfully she's not letting his rejection define her.
