The forge was hot, but cleansing. Lots of steps to come, some good, some bad, but steps nonetheless.
For all the questions, let me just say this. This has to do with relationships, one in particular. It involves a change of mindset, seemingly so simple, but became crystal clear the change would result in Many Good Things. It's truly is a great feeling. A little scary, too, because it involves lots of thinking, doing, and learning on my part, some of which will be difficult because it goes against my nature. But that's the great thing about human nature, it can be changed if you want it bad enough.
The journey has begun.
