Simplified Meaning:

When something or someone is exceptionally noticeable or impressive, it can also create significant problems or negative effects. Think of a famous celebrity whose success brings them lots of attention. While they might enjoy the spotlight and benefits that come with fame, they often face intense scrutiny, loss of privacy, and even personal struggles because of it. The same can happen in our daily lives; achieving something great, like a promotion at work, can bring new challenges, like more responsibilities and stress. It's a reminder that with big successes or strong qualities, there can be big downsides too. It's important to be aware of these possible negative effects and handle them wisely.
