Bullies have compassion, too.

I don’t support bullying.

But I would like to share an interesting incident that I encountered.

I was sad, or rather, depressed, about personal matters.?

It was obvious on my face. Besides, I fail to fake a smile.

As I sat quietly in the office, some of my colleagues did care to ask if everything was okay.

Then there was this guy who had witnessed a colleague poking fun at me days ago. He thought that could be the reason and tried to console me.

Surprisingly, I learned that he himself is a bully among his peers. I was taken aback when he advised me not to take bullies seriously or give them any heed.

Seriously? Was this coming from a person who people consider a bully?

I couldn’t process him comforting me. It pushed me to think about the qualities less acknowledged in such a kind.

A study disclosed that bullies are twice as likely to suffer from mental health issues.

Why do bullies flaunt their dominant traits?

I am no expert. But all I know is that they deserve more emotional guidance and mental support to help them identify and embrace their promising sides.
