Most of the time, when I want to share something from my life, I just dive in and tell it. In this instance, though, IƵm afraid my telling will fall short. That something I say, or donƵt say, will deplete my intent. Also, because I promised anonymity, I fear the elements I know but canƵt share may cause this to perhaps mean more to me than it might to others.

But IƵm going to try, anyway.
