Simplified Meaning:
Whenever we learn something, we understand it in our own way. Think about reading a book; two people might interpret the same story differently based on their personal experiences. One person might feel inspired, while another might feel sad. Our background, culture, and emotions shape how we see and understand information. For example, when watching a historical event on TV, someone who lived through it may have a very different perspective compared to someone learning about it for the first time. This means that knowledge is not just about facts, but about how we make sense of those facts. By understanding this, we can appreciate different viewpoints and use them to enrich our own understanding.
