- Give nothing but compliments.
- Offer only criticism.
Words that compliment and words of criticism both strike like arrows, and they seldom miss their mark.

Hello! While I don’t mind you reproducing these brief introductions and pictures from my posts on your blog, I prefer you link to my original post (on my blog) when you say: “To finish reading this article, please head over to . . .” –rather than linking to ChristianBlessings.
I looked for a way to contact you, but the comments section was the only way I could see to do it.
Thank you, and God bless.

So noted, I apologize for the problem.
