"Supongo que la verdad es que las personas son buenas de corazón hasta que algo las rompe y entonces no lo son."

Simplified Meaning:

People usually start off kind and caring. Imagine a small child who is cheerful and likes to share their toys. As they grow older, life can become tough. Maybe they lose someone they love, or they face many unfair and bad things. These hard experiences can change them. The same happy child might become angry or stop caring about others. So, if someone who was once nice turns mean, it's often because they’ve been hurt somehow. Knowing this can help us be kinder to others because we all carry our own pain. Trying to understand people's struggles can lead to more compassion and fewer misunderstandings.
