No one is so powerful that they can harm others without ultimately harming themselves. Imagine a tree with deep roots that believes it can poison the soil around it without suffering in its own branches. Just as those roots draw nourishment from the earth, our actions towards others are intertwined with the essence of our own existence. When we choose to harm, we plant seeds of bitterness and resentment that inevitably bear fruit in our own lives.
The very power one believes sets them apart can become the very force that ensnares them. Harming others is like a fire that consumes not only what lies around it but also its own fuel. The harm we cause moves in a circle, always finding its way back to us—like ripples on a pond that eventually reach the shore from where they started.
True strength, therefore, lies not in tearing others down but in building bridges, because when we try to tear others down, we often find ourselves crumbling in the process.
