Simplified Meaning:

A "ghetto" is typically a place where people are limited or confined, often because of their race or social status. When someone says they lived in a "ghetto of their own," it means they felt stuck or isolated, but not necessarily in a physical location. It could be an emotional or mental state where they felt trapped, like in a bad situation or mindset. For example, you might feel like you are in a "ghetto" if you are always worried and stressed out about things and can't seem to escape those feelings. Imagine a person who grew up in a tough neighborhood. Even if they leave that place, they might carry the fear and struggles with them. Those feelings can make them feel like they are in a new kind of ghetto, even if on the outside, their life looks different and better. To apply this idea to improve your life, you can try to recognize when you feel stuck or isolated emotionally. Then, work on changing your thoughts or environment to break free from that feeling. This could be by talking to someone you trust, trying new experiences, or focusing on positive aspects of your life.
