I was approaching it pretty much from a personal angle. I remember vividly what it was like to risk losing my single person's autonomy in exchange for my married person's partnership. It's scary, it's exciting, it's exasperating. But no matter what I had thought it would be beforehand, it didn't even come close to what I actually gained. It was very much like a miracle and many people will search for it...and never find it, if divorce rates are to be believed.
So in terms of Russell and her love for Holmes, I just thought that it nicely paralleled Margery's miracle.
