Simplified Meaning:

Imagine life being like a big theater play where all of us are actors. In this play, however, many people are playing roles that don't suit them at all. For example, think about a shy person being forced to act as a confident leader, or someone who loves art having to work as an accountant. This mismatch can create a lot of frustration and unhappiness because they can't truly be themselves or use their real talents. To make this situation better, people should try to find roles or jobs that fit who they really are inside. When everyone is in the right role, just like in a well-cast play, everything runs more smoothly and everyone feels more satisfied. So, it's important to discover what you are good at and try to live according to your strengths and passions.
