Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes things look different from how they really are. For instance, you might see two identical apples at the supermarket, but one might be fresh and the other might be old and rotting inside. Similarly, in life, situations or people can seem the same on the surface, but when you look closer, there’s often a unique true version. For example, you might meet two people who are both very friendly. One of them could be genuinely kind, while the other might just be pretending to be nice to get something from you. So, it's important to not just trust what you see at first. Look deeper to understand the real situation or the true character of a person. This way, you can avoid being tricked or making wrong choices based on first impressions.
