My hope is that as I progress my hand holding will slip into my day without need ing as much scheduling as it does right now. that I can take time to meet people but also that I can find the courage to just ask someone to take this little leap with me. So today I asked a work colleague. This is not unusual I have asked a work colleague before, however this work colleague has no previous knowledge of what I am up to so it came as an odd request to her. Of course, this is too be expected. Thankfully she said yes to my request and indulged me. I felt very privileged as it was a fairly public display of hand holding. It is interesting how it makes the action feel different to when we have specifically come together to hold hands. To go about your business whilst silently connected to another.
