आलोचना आपका सत्रु नहीं बल्कि आपका सबसे बड़ा मित्र क्यों है? Why is criticism not your best enemy but your best friend? Friends come in all shapes and sizes, as the saying goes. But a true friend is one who sees us more clearly than we see ourselves. They see our flaws, our good sides and bad sides, and are willing to say the things that most people won't say. They tell us what we don't want to hear. They are the best reflection we can have of ourselves because a true friend genuinely cares about us and holds up a mirror for us to see the things we don't want to see, admit or face. They hold us accountable for our mistakes, and guide us back on our path when we tend to stray. Then, there are friends, or should I say, false/fake friends, or flatterers, who will compliment you, even for the silliest of causes, and never criticise you even if it is needed.
