"私が知っている人間の本性についての最も悲劇的なことの一つは、私たち全員が生きることを先延ばしにしがちであるということです。私たちは皆、今日窓の外に咲いているバラを楽しむ代わりに、地平線の向こうの魔法のようなバラ園を夢見ているのです。"

Simplified Meaning:
People often delay truly enjoying their lives because they're waiting for some perfect moment in the future. They imagine a better, dream-like situation that isn't real yet, and this distracts them from the good things they already have. For example, someone might keep telling themselves they’ll be happy once they get a promotion or buy a bigger house. Meanwhile, they miss out on precious moments with family or the beauty of simple pleasures around them. By always waiting for something better, they ignore the happiness they could have right now. So, it's important to appreciate what you have today, rather than always looking for something better tomorrow.
