“The best revenge is not to be like your enemy ”
— Marcus Aurelius

Simplified Meaning:
When someone hurts or wrongs you, it can be tempting to do the same thing back to them. Instead of getting even, a more powerful response is to be a better person and not act like them. This means behaving with kindness and integrity, even if others don't. Imagine a classmate who bullies you. Instead of bullying them back, show them you are kind and respectful. By doing this, you take control of your actions and don't let their bad behavior change who you are. This approach not only helps you feel better about yourself but also shows that you are strong and can rise above negativity.
