"Cada época tiene su propia ceguera."
— Martin Heidegger
Simplified Meaning:
People in every time period have their own flaws and things they don't notice or understand about the world around them. Just like how people in the past didn't realize some things that seem obvious to us now, such as how smoking is harmful to health, people today also have areas where they lack awareness. For instance, many people now rely heavily on technology and may not yet see the potential dangers, like privacy issues or the impact on face-to-face communication skills. Understanding this can help us become more cautious and open-minded to learning. By considering this, we can try to recognize and overcome our own blind spots, so we don't make the same mistakes. This awareness helps us grow and improves our society over time.
