"Le monde n'est pas respectable ; il est mortel, tourmenté, confus, à jamais trompé ; mais il est traversé par la beauté, l'amour, des éclats de courage et de rire ; et en cela, l'esprit s'épanouit."
— George Santayana
Simplified Meaning:
Life can often be tough and messy. We go through hard times, feel lost, and may even be tricked or misled at times. Despite all this, there are still moments of beauty and joy. Think about a time when everything seemed to go wrong, but then a friend made you laugh, or you saw a beautiful sunset. These small, happy moments give us strength and hope. Like a flower that grows even in difficult conditions, our spirit thrives and becomes stronger because of these moments of love, bravery, and happiness. By focusing on and appreciating these positive experiences, we find the courage to keep going and stay hopeful.
