Simplified Meaning:

People are often curious and want to know details about others' lives that don't really concern them. For example, someone might be overly interested in a co-worker's private issues, like their family matters or financial problems. This behavior is intrusive because these personal details are not relevant to their own lives. Instead of focusing on such matters, it's better to respect others' privacy and mind our own affairs. By doing so, we can create a more respectful and peaceful environment. In practical terms, this means resisting the urge to gossip or pry into sensitive topics that don't involve us directly.
