"私たちの成長のいくつかの時期は非常に混乱しているため成長が起きていることさえ認識できません。"
— Alice Walker
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when we’re learning and changing, it can be so mixed up that we don’t notice we’re improving. Think about a caterpillar turning into a butterfly. When it's inside the cocoon, it might seem like nothing good is happening; it’s dark and confusing. But inside, it's actually growing into something beautiful, even if it can’t tell. In our lives, there are times we might feel lost or overwhelmed, like starting a new job or moving to a new place. It feels hard to adjust and everything seems confusing. But after some time, we realize we’ve learned new skills or grown stronger in ways we didn’t see before. So, when life feels confusing, remember that you might be growing in ways that will become clear later on. Be patient with yourself, trust the process, and know that confusion might just be a part of your growth.
