Simplified Meaning:

People who don't think deeply usually find life simple and not confusing. They see things in a straightforward manner and don't question much. Imagine a child who believes that food appears magically on the table without wondering how it's made. In contrast, someone who understands cooking knows that it involves planning, many ingredients, and work. The child’s viewpoint is uncomplicated because they lack the knowledge or curiosity to dig deeper. Similarly, in life, a person who doesn’t reflect or ask questions might find everything clear and easy to understand. However, as people learn more, they often realize that life is more complex and mysterious than it first seems. This idea encourages us to be curious and think deeply to appreciate the true depth of life’s mysteries.
