Simplified Meaning:

Imagine you go to a playground expecting it to be a super fun amusement park. If you think like that, you might be disappointed because the playground isn't as exciting. This quote means our world isn't perfect, and things won't always go the way we want. For example, in school, sometimes we may not get the best grades or our friends might let us down. Instead of being upset because the world isn't perfect, we should understand that it's normal for things to go wrong. By lowering our expectations a bit and not aiming for everything to be flawless, we can be happier and less stressed. This way, when things do go well, we can appreciate them more. So in life, be realistic, accept imperfections, and focus on enjoying the good moments when they come.
