Criticize Me All You Want. I Can't Hear You.

The Stoic philosophers tell us to ignore criticism and sniping coming from others, as we can't control external events or others. But, knowing the right thing, and doing it, can be problematic. So, pig has a solution that I endorse. Remove yourself from the vicinity of toxic persons, or critical persons. If you can't do it physically, put a barrier between your ears and their nastiness. Now, go have a peaceful quiet Saturday, surrounded by your friends. I will be gathering with other 75 year olds, all of whom have weathered enough tragedy and problems in their lives to realize that we are all in this together, and we should be kind and nice to each other. Peace out.
