Is the following text correct? ''...I'm not sugar coating my comments...''

1b00Is the following text correct?02b02br
02br
01font00I do have some questions about your last post. But I would ask them later.02font02br
02br
01font00Sometimes one's words can tell us a lot about him. Your words tell me that somewhere inside you there is a poet. You have a poetic style of writing. That's a great thing. I'm not sugar coating my comments. If I don't like something, I do not comment on it. You view things through art. That's a hard thing. Not everyone has 01b01font00wit/wits02font02b00 to appreciate or understand artistic view.02font02br
02br
01font00Yes, you have your own words. That's the reason in my prior posting I said that every time I read your post you make me use a dictionary. If someone is not able to understand your words, then he can ask you for further help. He can also ignore your post because he is at liberty to do so. As far as I am concerned, I would not call such a person a true learner, who ignores others' effort. We must appreciate each and every bit of help which we receive from others. Every person has a right to write in his own style. You have your own unique style. You first view your words through art, and then arrange them to form an artistic sentence. Well, this is not an easy thing to do.02font02br
02br
01font00Unique things are always hard to comprehend. Only a true man dares to face them, when he comes across them. That said, you are also a good person with lots of brains.02font0-
