"Si los pies de los árboles no estuvieran atados a la tierra, me estarían persiguiendo. Porque he florecido tanto, soy la envidia de los jardines."

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine you're in a garden with many plants and trees. Usually, these trees stay in one place because their roots are stuck in the ground. Now, picture if those trees could move around. They would chase after someone who's grown a lot and stands out beautifully, like a flower that everyone admires. In everyday life, this means that when you achieve a lot and become successful, others might look at you with jealousy or envy. Think about a student in school who always gets top grades and wins awards. Other students might wish they could be like that, feeling a bit jealous because they want the same success. To apply this idea to life, understand that as you grow and do well, some people might envy your success. Instead of feeling bad, keep focusing on your growth and help others improve too, if you can. Just remember that being really good at something can sometimes make others feel a bit jealous, and that’s normal.
