“You cannot create experience. You must undergo it”

Albert Camus

Simplified Meaning:

Learning through real-life events cannot be made up or skipped. Imagine trying to learn how to ride a bicycle. You can't just read about it or watch someone else do it; you actually have to get on the bike, maybe fall a few times, and keep practicing until you get the hang of it. This is similar to other aspects of life, like developing skills at work or building strong relationships. You have to actually go through situations, face challenges, and make mistakes to really understand and grow. Just like you can't become an expert cyclist without riding, you can't gain wisdom or become experienced without living through different events and learning from them.
