Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Critiquing the Critique

There is only one way to avoid criticism: 
do nothing, say nothing, 
and be nothing. 
–Aristotle


Critics:

Those who tell you how you can  do it better


Why you should  not do it at all


Why it cannot be done

They have a vocabulary that starts with "but"


and ends with "what if"


Doers:

Ignore the critics

And get it done

Maggie Stiefvater said:
 "In the end, you have to write like you are not afraid of the critics"


To get things accomplished, 
you have to live that way as well.
and that's poetiquejustis

Fear of man will prove to be a snare, 
but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe.
Proverbs 29:25
