“There are so many things we can't do anything about, that to carry around in your head all the time, with the intensity of some people, is just debilitating”
— Thomas Sowell
Simplified Meaning:
Some things in life are out of our control. Worrying too much about these things can take a lot of energy and make you feel tired and stressed out. Imagine a student who constantly worries about natural disasters, even though they can't stop them from happening. If they think about this all the time, they might get too anxious to focus on their studies or enjoy time with friends. It's better to accept that some things are beyond our control and not let them weigh us down. This way, we can use our energy for things we can change and make our lives happier and more productive.
