I was sharing a similar thought process with some friends via e-mail - however you took it a step further.
As a testamonial, I was just talking with W and she was reliving how depressed and smothered she felt just before the bomb. She then went into how great she feels right now - loved unconditionally - and that in part due to how she can be more of herself and that *I* lead, am not a wuss. As an aside, she had been in a terrible mood the past day or so - due to stress in her business life and was trying to put it on me - I respectfully listened but wouldn't accept that gift in fact. I was supportive of the business issue but indicated that I'm not a punching bag. Furthermore, *I* see how I would have taken that MUCH more personally in the past, retreated and been resentful. Not today. So my path as the LBS has changed.
Anyway, freakin' great stuff. You rawk!

Never sacrifice the great for the good. Sometimes the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.
