Simplified meaning
When you openly show your emotions to everyone, it can make you vulnerable. People might take advantage of your feelings or hurt you more easily. For example, if you tell everyone exactly how you feel about everything, some people might use that information against you. Instead, it's smarter to keep some of your feelings private and not share them with everyone. This way, you protect yourself and can handle your emotions in a more controlled way. In life, being careful about who you trust with your deepest feelings can help you stay strong and avoid unnecessary pain.
