"La cultura del confort, que nos hace pensar solo en nosotros mismos, nos insensibiliza ante los clamores de otras personas."
— Pope Francis
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when we get used to living comfortably and only focusing on our own needs, we can forget about the problems others face. It's like when someone sits in a warm, cozy house on a cold winter day. They're so comfortable that they might not think about the people outside who are struggling to stay warm. This comfort can make us less aware of the difficulties others are going through because we're too focused on our own happiness. For example, if you have plenty of food, you might not notice someone who is hungry because you’re not dealing with that problem yourself. To improve, we should try to be more aware and compassionate towards others, paying attention to their struggles and helping when we can. This means listening, showing kindness, and offering support even when we are comfortable ourselves.
