“To belittle, you have to be little”
— Khalil Gibran
Simplified Meaning:
When someone makes others feel small or unimportant, it shows they are insecure or feel small themselves. Think of a bully at school. The bully picks on others to make themselves feel bigger or better. This usually means the bully has their own problems or feels bad inside. By being mean, they are trying to hide their insecurities. So, if you see someone being cruel, remember that it often means they are dealing with their own issues. Instead of lowering yourself to their level, try to be kind and confident.
