On A Deeper Level

Critics could be more valuable that compliments. It may seem people are underestimating us, trying to belittle or corner, but if we carefully look at an essence of comments without unnecessary emotions, we can see for ourselves the opportunity to change something, learn something, put a new bar.

Even prejudiced critics can whip us up.

Every Arkan has a secret and a lesson of being. Here we are faced with the fact that an enemy can teach us more, than a fool’s friend. The page of the Swords could be that door of wisdom, passing through which we learn to appreciate our detractors no less than our fans, and how to treat our enemies as reverently as we treat our friends: because enemies teach us, because they open our eyes to what we do not want to see, but we should, because without this step we cannot make a step forward.
