Criticism or Ridicule
Another principle we observe carefully is that we do not relate
intimate experiences of another person unless we are sure he
would approve. We find it better, when possible, to stick to our
own stories. A man may criticize or laugh at himself and it will
affect others favorably, but criticism or ridicule coming from
another often produces the contrary effect.

Thought to Ponder . . .
To be sensitive is to feel the thoughts and hearts of others
as only you would want yours felt.
