"我々は考えすぎて感じなさすぎる"
— Charlie Chaplin
Simplified Meaning:
People often spend a lot of time analyzing and worrying about things instead of simply experiencing their emotions. For example, when something bad happens, like losing a job, it’s easy to overthink what went wrong, who was at fault, and the future consequences. All this thinking can create stress and anxiety. Instead, if they allow themselves to feel sad or disappointed, they can understand their emotions better and move on quicker. Similarly, in good times like a celebration, enjoying the happiness at the moment without overthinking can make the experience richer. Applying this to daily life means letting go of excessive worries and truly feeling emotions, which can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life.
