I can't stand the rain

Harsh words could easily break me. They could. But they won't. The brute force of criticism is always hard on me at first. I wallow in it for a couple hours, letting it sink in, swish around in a glass half empty. I allow myself the moment to feel sorry for myself. I toss, I turn, I think. And then, I change my mind. I get up, caffeinate, and do it all over again. I won't be discouraged.

    my dad once (or more then once) said to me, "You don't know nothin about nothin". Seems appropriate for your criticizers.
