Simplified meaning
Going through tough times shows your true strength and character. Imagine you're facing a big challenge, like losing a job or dealing with a difficult relationship. It's not just the problem itself that defines you, but how you handle it. Do you stay strong, keep trying, and make the best of it? Or do you give up quickly? For example, when someone falls down, we respect them more if they get back up and try again, rather than staying on the ground. This advice is useful because it reminds us that during hard times, keeping a positive attitude and persevering is what really counts.
