Simplified Meaning:

This quote is about not worrying too much about defending or explaining yourself to others. Imagine you decide to dress in a unique style or follow a passion that others might not understand. Instead of spending energy trying to convince people that your choices are right or explaining why you do what you do, you simply live your life confidently and honestly. For instance, if you love painting abstract art and someone criticizes it because they don’t understand it, you don’t feel the need to justify your art. You keep painting because it makes you happy and you believe in it. This approach can bring more peace and confidence because you’re not constantly seeking approval or understanding from others. By focusing on what truly matters to you and not on the opinions of others, you can lead a more authentic and fulfilling life. It’s about trusting yourself and your own path without feeling the need to gain everyone’s approval.
