She works for the Women of Faith conference tour and has recently come out of a very fundamentalist church. She said something very interesting a few weeks ago that I've been letting percolate because I think it has a lot of value. We were talking about all the rules, fear, anger, etc. and she said, "It's hard, but I think a lot of those rules and expectations are people putting their own limitations onto others." That's a very liberating thought when you begin to work it through. It allows for a lot of grace. I recently met a woman who I think might become a friend in time.
