Simplified Meaning:

Everyone has different sides to their personality and can feel or think in different ways at different times. Just because you sometimes feel or act differently than you did before doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. It simply means you are a complex person with many different ideas and feelings. Imagine a friend who loves both reading books and playing sports. On some days, you might see them excitedly talking about a novel they enjoyed, and on other days, you'll see them passionately discussing a football game. They're the same person, but they enjoy a wide range of activities. Similarly, people can change their opinions and feelings over time as they learn and grow. This doesn't make them inconsistent; it highlights their depth and ability to understand various perspectives. Embracing this idea can help you be kinder to yourself when you change your mind or evolve in your thinking. So, don't worry if you sometimes seem to contradict yourself. It just means you're a well-rounded individual with many different interests and thoughts, which is a good thing.
