Wow -- very interesting.
Well, I would certainly equate all bullies to being infantile and very child-like. It's really immature behavior. And not very enlightened behavior either. They will fall by the wayside, when it comes to spiritual ascension. But that's a different topic.
A part of me - my more mature side - knows that I am far beyond this, and that I do not need to engage.
And then my more immature, less developed side wants to engage and stand up to them.
