“Ignorance is always afraid of change”

Simplified Meaning:

When people don't know much about something, they often fear anything new or different. This is because they aren't sure how the changes will affect them. Imagine you have a favorite meal you always eat, and someone suggests trying a new dish. You might be scared to try it because you don't know if you'll like it and you feel safe eating what you're used to. In history, when cars were first invented, many people were scared to stop riding horses because cars were new and unfamiliar. In your own life, you can be more open to change by learning more about what's new instead of fearing it. If you hear people talking about a new technology or way of doing things, take some time to read about it or ask questions. The more you understand, the less scary it will seem. This helps you grow and adapt, instead of staying stuck in old ways that might not be the best anymore.
