Sometimes we can be insensitive when we're critiquing other people's work. But we have to remember they are just like us, working hard, and deserve to be encouraged and helped. We should give the type of critique we would like to receive -- honest, helpful comments that can help us build our work into something great. Absolutely, Joanne.
