Mike,

Thank you so much for this post. I always make a point of viewing and sharing in your ideas and thoughts. I have never observed you serving up the lengthy self validating essay. You are crisp and real.

I too have learned more from this forum in 6 months than in several years of books and tapes, and I share your emotions here about criticism. The NEED to have your work viewed, and the FEAR of having your work viewed. Thank goodness we have this safe soft place in which to practice the art of acceptance.
