"慣れは侮蔑を生む"
— Aesop

Simplified Meaning:
When you spend a lot of time with something or someone, you might start to take it for granted and notice more of its flaws. For example, think about a favorite song you have. At first, you love it and play it all the time. But after hearing it over and over, you might start getting bored or even annoyed with it. The same thing can happen with people. You might really like a friend or family member, but if you see them every day, their small bad habits can start to bother you. To avoid this, it's good to appreciate the positive things about the people and things around you and give yourself some space when needed. This can help keep your feelings towards them positive and fresh.
