Pope John Paul II

Simplified Meaning:

Ignoring problems or not caring about them can be very harmful to keeping peace. When people don't take a stand against the wrong things happening around them, those problems can grow and affect everyone. For example, if someone at school is being bullied and no one steps in to help or report it, the bullying might get worse, and more people could get hurt. In history, when countries didn't act against the rise of aggressive leaders, it often led to big conflicts and wars. By paying attention and taking action when we see something wrong, we can help stop problems before they get bigger. So, being active and caring about what's happening around us is crucial for maintaining peace in our communities and the world.
