You as an artist,
who is always striving to perfect your craft,
may encounter people
who will have harsh critiques about your creation
Do not be disappointed, defensive or feel defeat,
take a step back,
listen carefully to the message
over the tone of their delivery
and you may gain
some useful insight
into making yourself better

Oops…. I hit send too soon…. I hope you and your family are safe. I assume so since you’ve published a post. I’ve been thinking about you and your family, and praying for everyone in the hurricane’s path.
