DEAR SOMEONE
This letter is for you, you that is finding it really hard to have a relationship with someone who is so critical of everything you do. You that is at the receiving end of people that are overly critical of everything you do and you that have a family that is critical of everything you do to the point where the simple act of breathing can draw criticisms.
➖
I know this is very hard for you, and I hope you do not cry alone. I know this is very hard for you, especially if you are stuck with the one that is always critical of you in the same office, home or circle. I know this is very hard for you, and that's why I am writing you this letter, hoping I could say something that will be of help. I know this is very hard for you and that is why I am praying for you to keep your head up as you read this letter and that is why I want you to understand that, as people, we don’t have control over what people say or do to us. We don't have control over their hearts and thoughts. We only have control over our actions, choices and reactions. So I will ask that you stop wishing that sometimes people weren't so critical of everything you do and understand that criticism is nothing but a self-description of those that are critical of everything you do or say.

Stop wishing that sometimes people weren't so critical of everything you do and understand that excessive criticism reveals more about your critics than it does about you. Most of the time their nagging, tantrums, complaints and negative comments are not you, it is THEM, that friends that are overly critical of everything you do, big or small, are not FRIENDS, that friends who find ways to offend you through words while covering them up with jokes are not your FRIENDS and that friends who belittle your achievements by talking about theirs are not your friends.
