The Communist Prison State
On 8 June, 1934, the USSR officially declared itself a prison. Any attempts to leave the USSR without permission began to be considered an escape. The Central Executive Committee of the USSR adopted a law of death penalty (or 10 years of service in camps under extenuating circumstances) for attempting to "escape" unauthorised from the country. Family members of the 'runaway' themselves received from 5 to 10 years in camps with confiscation of all their property if they knew of the escape plan. If they did not know, disenfranchisement and exile to remote areas of Siberia for 5 years. The internal reasons were collectivisation and famine. In the absence of free elections, people could only vote on foot, that is, to escape from the “free” communist paradise.

There are no instructions and guarantees in love, it is always a leap of faith, pure experiment.
Two ways to deal with criticism.
Remember that more often than not, criticism is a good thing:
If it comes from an employer, colleague, mentor, family member, or friend, the chances that they want to make you worse are slim to none. Any advice that could potentially lead to self-improvement is a good thing.
Practice Active Listening:
When it comes to criticism, the skill of active listening can be an extremely useful tool to uncover the critic's true intent-just to humiliate you or to help you become a better person.
