Yes, a really good point; it's all about our framing. As I said to the doctor, who was wondering why I was so happy as he was scrubbing the wound, "It's just another *thing*; it's really all only the radiant self, which we put different labels on and react accordingly.....if we don't like our labels, why not change them?" He closed his eyes, went into stillness and said, "Done!" A very cool dude :-)
