Simplified Meaning:

Facing an uncomfortable truth is better in the long run than believing in a nice-sounding lie. Imagine someone not wanting to admit they have a health problem because it scares them. If they ignore the issue because pretending everything is fine feels better, the problem might get worse over time. On the other hand, accepting the hard truth and going to the doctor could lead to treatment and improvement. Dealing with the truth might be tough at first, but it prevents bigger problems later on. Overall, being honest with ourselves and others, even if it's difficult, keeps us safer and helps us handle real issues before they become serious.
