I guess we are talking about pretty much the same thing on two threads! But still, I very much appreciate your long and thoughtful post. It gives me important things to try to think about- calmly, I hope. although calmness is not too easy to come by these days!
My older son, who is 29, is being married October 8th in Princeton. I have been telling my analyst that I am hoping to feel happy and involved with him and his wonderful bride that weekend- But! Our work together is getting more and more intense, and although I'm so glad for the progress I'm making, I'm less and less sure about keeping things together in public situations. A couple of times recently, I have suddenly burst into tears in public without knowing I was going to- so embarrassing. In strategizing for the wedding, my analyst and I have agreed that perhaps some tears will be OK. If anyone wants to see them, you can look for two Princeton physicists marrying one another in the New York Times on October 9th- there are bound to be only two!
