Meaning
This reads as a warning that chasing approval can shrink a person until their real presence is hard to see. It can be taken to mean that dignity grows when someone stops hiding and allows their fuller self to show. It lands in a moment like starting a new job, speaking up in a group, or choosing not to soften yourself to fit in.
