I would rather hear 5 words of truth, aimed at protecting my integrity, than 1000 words of flattery, aimed at my pride. My pride may take a hit with this honest criticism, but I know that the person who speaks truth is one that will be there when the storms of life come. One golden friend is worth more than 50 zirconium pretenders.
23 In the end, people appreciate honest criticism far more than flattery.
Proverbs 28:23
