When someone or something is protected, they are kept away from danger. There are a lot of things that people may want protection from like injuries, infections, damages, losses, etc. Protection can also be against weather conditions, dangerous people, evil forces, unsafe places, etc.
We protect what we care about. If we didn't care enough, we wouldn't bother protecting it. Any damage or harm caused would not mean anything to us. But if someone or something is important, we will be uneasy when we imagine that they are in danger or unsafe territory.
We will want to protect them at all costs. People would do anything to protect what they love. That's why they part with ransoms in cases of kidnappings, give bribes to keep loved ones out of harm's way or prison, and hide things they treasure far away from everyone's view.
When you are given protection you feel loved and cared for. It doesn't need to be something as big as having bodyguards and a convoy of police cars surrounding you. It can be a small act like being given a sweater to protect you from the cold or an umbrella on a rainy day.
And then there are regions that are war-stricken and generally unsafe to live in or travel to. Being in such places strips you of protection because you are away from safety and anything could happen to you. If possible, stay within protected boundaries and help someone who needs to be protected.
It could even be protection from an abusive partner, parent, or bullies. Always involve authorities in these cases and move away to a safer place if necessary. It's better safe than sorry. It's always better to run for your safety than lose your life in the process. Here is a collection of protection quotes.
