In communication, the personal meaning of information tends to be

The personal meaning that information carries for an individual tends to be subjective, coloured by that person's own experience, mood and frame of reference.

Meaning is not fixed in the words themselves but is built inside the receiver, so the same message lands differently on different people.

Calling it critical would treat every private reading as an act of evaluation or judgement, which personal meaning need not be.

Treating it as passive misses the point that the receiver actively supplies interpretation rather than merely absorbing.

Labelling it objective would claim one true meaning independent of the person, the opposite of a personal reading.

Semantic differences among receivers arise precisely because interpretation is anchored in each person's own world.
