You're the greatest trooper for all that waiting you put up with while I trapped myself in Linecon . . . Truly a hero among us.
It's easy to get swept by the tides of expectations and societal pressure, and difficult to accept both your flaws and the love of others faced against them. Our assessment of ourselves is always going to be harsher than how other people perceive us, and that's okay. It's those same people who give us love when we have none for ourselves—that's what I think, at least.
I'm very fortunate to have you as a friend and as an inspiration, and I value you for all that you are. Thanks for sticking around all these years, Dana.
