Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, standing up for what you believe in means you might have to be alone. Imagine a kid at school sees that everyone is picking on a new student. The kid decides to befriend the new student, even though it means other kids might not want to hang out with them anymore. They feel lonely, but they know they're doing the right thing by being kind. When you have a strong belief or think something is very important, others might not agree with you. They might even leave you alone because they don’t see things your way. But if you’re confident in your beliefs and know they’re right, being lonely is worth it. Over time, people might come to see that you were right all along. For example, look at historical figures like Martin Luther King Jr. He fought for civil rights, and many people didn’t agree with him at the time. He faced a lot of loneliness and resistance. But now, people see how important his ideas were, and he's celebrated for his courage to stand alone. In our own lives, this means we shouldn’t be afraid to be different or go against the crowd if we truly believe in what we’re doing. It might feel tough and lonely, but staying true to yourself is worth it in the end.
