“Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.”
— Martin Luther King Jr.

Simplified Meaning:
When we want to be free, we shouldn't let ourselves become filled with anger and hate. Imagine someone who has been hurt by others. If they focus too much on their anger, they will stay angry and never truly feel better. Instead, they should try to heal and forgive to find real peace. Look at Nelson Mandela's story. After being in prison for many years, he chose to work towards peace instead of revenge. Because of this, he helped his country and himself find true freedom. If we hold on to negative feelings, they will keep us down. But if we choose kindness and understanding, we can move forward and really enjoy our freedom.
