"当我们试图单独挑出任何东西时,我们会发现它与宇宙中的其他一切都有联系。"

Simplified Meaning:

Everything in the world is connected. When we try to look at something alone, we see that it's actually linked to many other things. Imagine pulling on a thread in a big, complicated web. Even a small tug affects the entire web. For example, think about a tree in a forest. It might seem like it's just standing there on its own, but it actually depends on the soil, the sunlight, the rain, and the insects that live around it. If we change one thing, like cutting down the tree, it can affect the animals, plants, and even the climate. This idea tells us that our actions have far-reaching consequences. So it's important to consider how what we do might impact other things. When making decisions, it's wise to think about the broader effects on the people and the environment around us.
