Your business card says psychotherapist, and you have a PhD (Piled Higher and Deeper…)
You are one of the most talented therapists I have ever met, and your website shows up on Page 1 of Google for "sex therapy Santa Rosa." But more importantly, you have helped thousands of people understand how to know themselves better, get along better and have juicier, more intimate relationships.
You first inhabited the earth nearly eight years before me on September 19, 1945. Unlike me, you are an extrovert to the enth degree, and you talk on the phone-often and then some. Everyone in town knows you. You have a ready laugh and a smile that literally owns your face.
There are so many reasons I love you. See below for a sampling.
About Barbara Molle, the love of my life
How do I love you? Let me count the ways…
Even though I can’t help but poke fun at you frequently, I respect, admire and enjoy you. A partial list of examples follows:
You actually get the humor in most of my jokes, so there’s two of us laughing instead of just one.
You are a keen observer of human nature, and you even get paid for your opinions about that.
Without you as social director and party planner, I would pretty much be content cleaning out my closet on the weekend.
You like kale and beans and other healthy stuff, and we both delight in growing things we can put in our mouth.
You are kind and generous even though you can be tough as nails. I respect both sides of you.
You believe in me and encourage me to great things that, one day, I will get around to doing.
You like to travel, and make a great traveling companion and fellow adventurer.
You are strong enough to handle the overbearing parts of me, which otherwise would run roughshod over you. Kudos and hoohah!
Even though you always say “No!” to most things I suggest or try to teach you, you are big enough to change and adopt new ways of doing things (except for those dishes in the sink…)
