Simplified Meaning:
When you get hurt, you learn an important lesson that you remember for a long time. Imagine touching a hot stove. The pain you feel teaches you not to touch it again. In the same way, making mistakes or experiencing difficulties helps you understand what not to do in the future. For example, if you spend all your money unwisely and then can't buy something you really need, you'll remember to save better next time. Learning through experience helps you grow and become wiser. So, when you face a problem or fail at something, see it as a learning opportunity.
