“We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started.”
— Ray Bradbury
Simplified Meaning:
We shouldn't only look at the best achievements of a person. Instead, we should think about how far they've come from where they began. For example, if someone starts with very little money and has a difficult life, but they work hard and make steady progress, this journey is important. It shows their effort and growth, even if they haven't reached the top. Focusing on their progress helps us appreciate their hard work and determination. This idea teaches us to recognize and value people's struggles and improvements rather than just comparing them to those who might have had more advantages from the beginning. This approach helps us be more understanding and supportive of each other's efforts.
