I also got to reflect on my own childhood as never before, and establish a greater bond with my own parents. I felt that, having used my body for the purpose it was designed, sex was even more magical. I never looked better. I was secure enough to know how valued I was at home, as I had been in other situations, and would be in the future. My life was in balance, and had variety.
Life goes on.
