Thanks, everyone, for your comments. I was out last night, so I just read through them all. One general thought I had, which suggests some shift in me, is that I used to feel rather defensive in reading people's comment, whether the comment was more about me or my T. And I found this time, reading through them, instead of immediately shifting into defensive mode, I was more like, "hm, that's an interesting point, maybe I should think on it more." Perhaps Dr. T has helped me to increase my tolerance for feedback from everyone except him!
