"في شبابي كنت أؤكد على الحرية وفي شيخوختي أؤكد على النظام لقد اكتشفت الاكتشاف العظيم أن الحرية هي نتاج النظام"

Simplified Meaning:
When the writer was young, they valued freedom and doing whatever they wanted. As they got older, they began to see the importance of having rules and organization. They realized that true freedom comes from having order and structure in life. For example, imagine a city without any traffic rules: everyone would drive however they want, which would lead to chaos and accidents. But with traffic lights and rules, people can move around safely and freely. Similarly, by having routines and set goals, a person can manage their life better and actually feel more free to enjoy things without stress. So, to really be free, having some structure and rules is actually necessary.
