Simplified Meaning:

When people feel bored, it can lead to negative behaviors because they are not comfortable with who they are. This quote suggests that boredom happens when someone avoids being true to themselves. For example, think about a student who doesn't know what to do on a rainy day. Instead of engaging in hobbies they love, they might end up mindlessly scrolling through their phone or getting into trouble because they are seeking distractions. This can also be seen in history. People unhappy or bored with their lives sometimes join harmful groups or start conflicts just to feel something different. They are running away from their true selves and looking for excitement in the wrong places. To prevent this, it's important to find activities and passions that truly interest you. Spend time understanding who you are and what you enjoy, rather than seeking quick entertainment or solutions that don’t fulfill you. This way, you can avoid making poor choices out of boredom and instead live a life that feels meaningful and true to you.
