Simplified Meaning:

Living a good life often depends on having rules that keep other people's actions in check. Imagine a busy street where everyone follows traffic rules. Because drivers stop at red lights and pedestrians use crosswalks, everyone can move safely. If there were no rules, cars could speed through intersections, putting everyone in danger. Similarly, in schools, rules against bullying help create a safe environment for all students. So, having these rules or limits on what people can do makes life safer and more enjoyable for everyone. Without such boundaries, life could become chaotic and hard to manage. By having rules, we can ensure respect and safety, enhancing the quality of our lives.
