“God long ago drew up the contract for the dissolution of all elements and relationships, the moment they emerge from existence”
— Elizabeth Gilbert
Simplified Meaning:
Everything in life eventually comes to an end, just like how things break apart or stop working over time. Think about a flower. When it blooms, it's beautiful; but after a while, it wilts and dies. This shows that from the very beginning, it was meant to last only for a short time. The same goes for friendships, jobs, and even buildings – they all have a lifespan. When we build a house, we know that one day it will need repairs or might even be torn down. This idea teaches us to appreciate things while they last and not be too sad when they end. In our lives, we should enjoy and cherish our experiences without clinging too tightly because change is natural. So, by understanding this, we can make the most out of the time we have and prepare ourselves better for when things change or end.
