problem-solving in a healthy place

After a disagreement about how I was doing something in Catherine's church, I got this note from one of the main actors.

I have a different approach to this than you do. This does not make either of us ‘right’ or ‘wrong’, just different. I’m fine with that. I totally support you in what you're doing. I am blessed by what you are doing. I’ve no intention of getting involved with it and would be extremely upset if you tried to alter what you do to suit me. That’s a pressure I don’t need. It’s not about me; it’s doing what God calls you to do, in your way and time. Repeat: I would be very upset if you tried to please or placate me; I would not support you in that. I’m happy. I want us to have the freedom to be different and to behave differently. 

Now you see how glad I am to be in this place. How'd you like to be involved in a church, office, family, — anything — like this one?
