“While poverty persists, there is no true freedom.”

Nelson Mandela

Simplified Meaning:

When people are poor, they cannot fully enjoy their freedom. Imagine if someone doesn't have enough money to buy food, pay for a place to live, or get an education. They spend most of their time worrying about basic needs instead of having the freedom to pursue what makes them happy or fulfilled. For example, a talented musician who is worried about their next meal might never have the chance to make music and share their gift with the world. It is hard to make free choices or follow dreams when you are just trying to survive. To truly be free, everyone needs to have their basic needs met so that they can focus on living a full and enjoyable life.
