An AI-generated Image by Author using Bing Image Creator

In our culture, our elders believed that there are four things we should not underestimate, considering their size

Those are:

  1. A prince — He may be a kid, but one day, he will be a king. So be careful not to make him angry or his royal parents.
  2. A novice monk — It doesn’t matter the age of a monk. It is not suitable to make fun of a novice monk.
  3. A baby serpent — Despite its size, a baby serpent may be poisonous. Don’t play a game with even a tiny one.
  4. A fire — Even a tiny spark of fire may cause significant damage. So we should not neglect it.

So it is advisable to follow a safe way while dealing with those.
