This is worth reading: The Most Common Form of Filipino Pride is worthless | Filipino Culture … /#comments

This article is an eye-opener for every Filipino to realize that when he/she looks in the mirror, what he/she will see is a person - faulty and vulnerable, not god or goddess worth saving a face when a mistake was done. This also shows that most people are good, some are even best, at making criticisms, but poor in making self-criticisms. Of course, before you criticize somebody else make sure that you weighed yourself first. It seems that some people are not allowed to be criticized because they don't want to be stand corrected. But those are different things.
Criticism is also healthy as long as it is constructive and not destructive. It helps in one's growth and development as a person - a better person.
