Good evening, everyone!
Updating for my own sake, here is part two for today.
"Personal feelings cloud one's judgment."
Hmm, I've been thinking about this recently; what should I do about it?
It's an unexpected blind spot, or perhaps a pitfall—how foolish of me to only realize it now.
When it comes to the act of evaluation, personal feelings are nothing but a hindrance.
If I favor a work simply because I am close with the creator, I can hardly offer any opinions to others.
It's the phenomenon known as bias, I suppose.
To say something is "good" in that state feels almost like a sacrilege.
To say it is "not good" in that state lacks fairness.
Comments made in an irresponsible state are inherently biased and lack any sense of impartiality.
However, without injecting personal feelings, I may never be able to reach the depths of another person.
Since we call the bond between people "emotion," shared time that is deep and intense inevitably leads to personal feelings creeping in.
But it is only through that process that mutual understanding begins, and the smooth communication of one's feelings—and then some—can start.
"To juggle critique and emotion, such dexterity is impossible."
I tried to make it rhyme a bit, but I truly believe it's impossible.
For now, I'll keep this unresolved and put it in the "do not forget" folder in my head.
Well, I'll think about it at my own pace.
