I have a story that really stands out in my mind. In high school, there was this guy who loved to pick on the smaller kids and make a spectacle of himself in front of everyone. He’d shove kids into lockers, mock them in the hallways, and seemed to thrive off of instilling fear.
One day, during gym class, we were playing a game that involved a lot of running and agility. This bully was feeling extra confident and decided to show off by trying to tackle anyone who came his way. Well, he picked the wrong target that day. There was a kid who was a bit of a quiet genius but was also secretly a martial arts expert. The bully charged at him as usual, thinking he could just run him over. But in a split second, this kid sidestepped him effortlessly and let him run full force into the gym wall.
Everyone went silent for a moment before bursting into laughter. The bully stood there, dazed and embarrassed, and from that day on, he seemed to back off. Sometimes, you just need a little humility to bring someone down a notch, and it felt so satisfying to see that tough guy finally get what was coming to him!
