"ماذا أعرف عن مصير الإنسان؟ يمكنني أن أخبرك المزيد عن الفجل."

Simplified Meaning:

Understanding the future or purpose of a person is very difficult because it's so unpredictable and complex. Think of it like trying to guess what will happen in someone's life in the next 10 years; there are too many things that can change. On the other hand, learning about something simple, like how radishes grow, is much easier. You can predict how a plant will grow because its needs and the steps to care for it are clear and straightforward. For example, you can plant a radish seed, water it, give it sunlight, and you know it will grow into a radish. But with a person's life, you can't predict with certainty what their job will be, who they will meet, or where they will live. To make your life easier, focus on what you can understand and control, and don't stress too much about trying to predict the unpredictable.
