Criticism


A non-constructive critique,

May cause one to shriek.

One tries to understand if the intent is being playful,

Or just downright hurtful.

Some can even be unethical,

Providing others with a short term chuckle.

It isn’t fair that one person’s evaluation,

Becomes lasting public opinion.

 

Perhaps you are a big threat,

Which turns one towards regret.

Not everyone is able to see,

Exactly who they want to be.

Don’t let others steal your happiness,

Take control of your self-esteem with finesse.

For you know within,

No one can attack your integrity, which lies deep within.

An intelligent statement that all readers should take to heart.
Too often readers believe the quality of another's thoughts is dependent on whether they reflect their own narrow point of view.
Your integrity is intact, DL Carroll, and so is your writing.

Trust your own "inner system" detecting
the..."non constructive critiques..."
and protect yourself from...those who neither
say what they mean, nor mean what they say....
Thank you for sharing your double thumb up poem, D.L.

Indeed, no ego, no pain. Just appreciation.
However on AD I think you'll agree that it is an edifying site. Where the best is looked for, yet there are those that can help one improve. xx

Without integrity, a person has nothing. And you've got plenty of integrity to go around.
