Marilyn, thanks for such a beautiful message. Let's call it a truce and
call Jan back? ;-)
I think, same goes with badly created photographs (either our own or
others'), it is an opportunity to think and contemplate what can be
improved upon; that's why reviews and reviewers on Photoforum are so important,
even if their words sometimes seem little unappreciative for some of the
photographs.

Subject: Difficult customers
Here is a new way
to think concerning your difficult customers - or just difficult
people.
(I'm still working on seeing this
sort of person as a "treasure"){:->

Now, there are many,
many people in the world, but relatively few with whom we interact, and even
fewer who cause us problems. So, when you come across such a chance for
practicing patience and tolerance, you should treat it with gratitude. It is
rare. Just as having unexpectedly found a treasure in your own house, you
should be happy and grateful to your enemy for providing that precious
opportunity.
-His Holiness the Dalai
Lama
