Simplified Meaning:

When things are bad or difficult, it helps us understand and appreciate the good times even more. Imagine walking through a dark forest, feeling scared because you can't see anything. When you finally find a light, it feels much better and safer. This light seems more special compared to when everything was already bright. Similarly, in life, struggling through hard times makes us more thankful for the happier moments. When something good happens after a tough period, it feels more precious. So, when we face dark days, we can remember that they teach us to value and recognize the good days even more.
