Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, the people who dislike you say a lot about who you are. Imagine you are a good person who always helps others. Mean and selfish people might not like you because you show how unkind they are by being kind yourself. In history, think about someone like Martin Luther King Jr., who fought for equality. The people who were against him wanted to keep things unfair and were scared of change. Looking at who opposes you can often show what you stand for. If the people who dislike you are bullies or liars, it can mean you're probably doing something right. So, in your own life, don't worry too much about your enemies. If the wrong kind of people dislike you, it might mean you're on the right path.
