Do what you think is right for you. You'll be criticized anyway!
Quote: Eleanor Roosevelt.
Do you ever feel that nothing you do ever pleases anyone - or that you will never please everyone.
Well, your are absolutely right.
So to heck with it all.

✨ Be your own Critic In The Wind
Do what you think is right,
for the world will chatter anyway -
a chorus of passing shadows
with opinions made of paper.
Walk your path like a lit fuse,
steady, bright, unbothered.
Let the whispers fall behind you
like leaves that never gave a damn
for only the leaves know
the weight of their own greenness.
Every step you take in truth
is a small rebellion,
a quiet refusal
to shrink for borrowed comfort.
So move to the beat of your drum -
not caring whether or not they approve,
chart your own inner compass' path
where your imagination
finds its own way home.
