		<description>Good call bro - there will always be people that will try cut you down, but as you mention I think they are increasingly becoming minority.

With the transparency of the internet and social networking I think it becomes increasingly harder to be a jerk/hater/poppy cutter.

&quot;If someone thinks you’re great? - Celebrate with them, thank them.. and show them they can be great too!&quot;

I agree - a lot of people find tall poppy&#039;s inspiring and their passion is often infectious..... unless they are arrogant - then they get chopped and made into opium....</description>
