"理解的最初迹象是想要死去的愿望"
— Franz Kafka
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, seeing the true nature of life can be overwhelming and painful. When people start to deeply understand difficult realities or harsh truths, they may feel a sense of despair or hopelessness. It's a bit like the moment when a person realizes how tough the world really is, and they might feel like they can't handle it anymore. Imagine a student who always thought the job market was easy but then realizes how competitive and unfair it can be; they might feel like giving up. It's not that understanding should make us wish for death, but the initial shock of reality can feel heavy. Over time, with this deeper understanding, people can find ways to cope and move forward positively. Instead of giving up, they can use their new insights to make better decisions and improve their lives.
