So essentially, the creation of life could prevent Padme's "death" by resurrecting her, and his attachment to her did him in. Does that explain your question Mark?

From a certain point of view. Except I think Anakin was always meant to be on the dark side. He was conceived to be sith. So, no matter what 'path' he followed, ultimately he would become evil. Padme or no Padme.
