Count me in with the 'it's the nature of stuff to break' vote. There's that buddhist (?) practice to see a glass as already broken, since that's what will happen to it eventually. It's a way of practicing detachment, I guess. And I applaud your ability to get it together (you, not the bowl) and move on.
That said, it's understandable that you were shaken. I'm glad that you were able to go on to have a good evening.
