"我们的内心也有宁静的地方,但我们故意在它们上面建造了乐台和工厂,以阻挡它们。"
— Aldous Huxley
Simplified Meaning:
People have calm, peaceful areas in their minds, but sometimes they choose to fill these areas with noise and busyness on purpose. Imagine a quiet park being covered with loud bandstands and busy factories; that's what we do to our own minds. For example, instead of enjoying silence or reflection, we might constantly check our phones or keep ourselves very busy to avoid being alone with our thoughts. This behavior can make it hard to find inner peace or happiness. By recognizing this habit, we can try to make time for quiet moments, allowing our minds to rest and enjoy calmness. Just like taking a break from work is good for our bodies, giving our minds some quiet time can help us feel more relaxed and balanced.
