This has given me the warm fuzzies ... seen on a tech forum in reply to one of my comments:
"Just want to say, I recognised your name immediately when I saw it. Saw a talk you gave at the Institute of Education in Bloomsbury back in 2010 when I was a teenager and it is still, to this day, one of the best popular mathematics talks I've ever witnessed"

We are always quick to see the worst in ourselves and others, and sometimes it can be hard to accept compliments.
So I'm going to say ... we should rejoice in the good things, to balance out and potentially overtake those things that are less good.
