"私たちは私たちに最も害を及ぼす可能性があるものが私たちに最も幸せをもたらすものと同じであるとは決して考えません。"

Simplified Meaning:
Often, the things that make us feel really happy can also be risky or harmful if we're not careful. For example, imagine you love eating your favorite junk food because it makes you feel good and tastes great. But if you eat too much of it all the time, it can make you sick. Another example is using social media. It can be a lot of fun to connect with friends and see what they're up to, but spending too much time on it can make you feel lonely or anxious. The key is to enjoy these things in moderation. Like balancing on a see-saw, too much weight on one side can tip everything over. So, being aware and careful about how much time or energy we give to what makes us happy can help us avoid the downsides.
