"La vieillesse est comme un avion volant à travers une tempête Une fois que vous êtes à bord il n'y a rien que vous puissiez faire"

Simplified Meaning:
Growing old is like being on a plane flying through bad weather. When you're on the plane and the storm starts, you can't get off. All you can do is sit tight and hope for a safe landing. Aging is similar—once you start getting older, you can't stop it or go back. You have to go through it, no matter how bumpy the ride gets. For instance, think about someone retiring after working for many years. They can't go back to being young, but they can prepare for the ride by saving money and staying healthy. Managing old age is about accepting the journey and making the best of it.
