Why differential equations? When to use them?

Hello everyone,

I have a question that I can't really find a concrete answer for years now. Why do we use differential equations? When would I normally think about using one? What would make me use one? I know it means the slope of a function and I know the derivation/integration rules, but I'm missing something. I don't have a feeling for when to use it, and no professor up to this point managed to explain it nice. I would appreciate very much a good pedagogical answer.
