Here's something to help put caveats into perspective. When someone compliments you and you tell them why they shouldn't, you are insulting that person's taste. Two simple words, "Thank you." Have all those caveats in your head and keep them to yourself. Trust me, after a while those caveats will disappear. Not all but most. And, then sooner or later you'll find out how wonderful you really are. *Smack* Stop it. Here’s something to help put caveats into perspective.

I'm the queen of caveats. I'm honestly just being totally frank (to a fault). Of course my editor friend is always reprimanding me for it. I've sewn some "nice looking" medieval costumes. Truthfully, they're mediocre at best (I know this because I know some really great seamstresses). However, those who see the costumes and who lack any sewing abilities, think they're great and compliment me on my "skill". :) I know the truth...however, in the light of this caveat conversation...next time I'll say, "Thanks! I rock!"...all the while thinking about the fraying seams on the inside of the garment. Who needs to know that? :) I suppose I tend to compare myself to those who are more skillful rather than those less skillful. "whap, whap"....I needed that. Ha! I’m the queen of caveats.
