Lisa,
Last night I asked her to re-read the Blog in the light of realities of life I had described. I think her vexation was from a fear that I had outed her to you. As we both know, she was dead wrong and now knows it. Some folks have a hard time understanding our sense of humor and as much as it vexes me, I find myself explaining what I thought was incredibly humorous.
Now you know what I do for a living, sort of.

Lisa,
At the outset, she was saying goodbye and ready to wish me well in my new found happiness and slightly bent about the blog. After reading my reply, it was all Wow!! and happy was the buzz word.

Lisa,
You should be more than relieved. I took a chance and let it all hang out. She ended the night by saying she realized how lucky she was to have people like her friends in her life. It was a beautiful thing.
Can’t wait to tell you about it.

Lisa,
Our mutual friend has responded to my email tonight with a big “Wow!”. She thanks me for my open expression of feelings and the fact that I want all three of us to be friends and never to have any feeling of discomfort about my role in the whole ruckus. You made it happen my dear and thanks be to all that we can now go forward with a new supporter in our camp for the project and that you and I can be happy in the knowledge that our mutual friend is with us.
It went much better than either of us could have predicted. You are incredible in making this happen and I am even more happy than before. God Lisa, I had no idea of your strength and wisdom. Will you ever cease to amaze?
More to come in the morning. I am sitting on the porch with my old hound dog admiring the strength and beauty of a powerful thunderstorm. Poetic on this night. This is an unbelievable point in my life, and it is only the beginning.
Will send you an update in the morning. Also, remind me to tell you about our candidate, she may turn into the perfect face for our project.
Sleep well and sweet dreams of the joys to come,
Percy

Lisa,
I received a long email from our mutual friend. The last hour has been spent replying in my clumsy way to explain all that has happened and all that I want to happen between the three of us without breaching any confidence that I hold. When she responds, all will be wonderful. You may not know but she is a very special person who cares deeply for those in her life, including both you and I. All will be well.
Thanks for listening, hope the procedure went well and we can talk later.
For tomorrow’s birthday, we have trust agreements, Miatas and God knows what else. I feel good about all the things that have happened for the first time in a long while. Thank you for the give and take. Let the circle be unbroken.

Lisa,
One last thought. Never in my wildest dreams did I envision causing you any stress over the relationship I had with C. I shared the truth with you only because of my trust in you and knowing that you would tell me to do the right thing and you did exactly that. Please accept my apology in being too blind to see that your relationship with her would cause stress if I involved you in my problem. I am the cause of all this and I must be the solution.
Its that simple so please forgive me and worry no more. I will not do or say anything to harm the relationship you have with her. As you so wisely said, “Men are stupid.” You are so right.
Lets move forward now,
Percy
