"Hasta que no estamos perdidos no empezamos a entendernos a nosotros mismos"
— Henry David Thoreau

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, we don't truly know who we are until we face difficult situations. When things are going well, it's easy to just go through life without thinking deeply about our actions or feelings. But when we get lost or experience hardships, we are forced to look inward and understand what we really need or want. For example, imagine someone losing their job unexpectedly. This tough situation might make them realize how much they value creativity, leading them to pursue a long-forgotten passion for painting. So, tough times can actually help us learn important truths about ourselves that we might not see otherwise. By facing challenges, we can discover our strengths, values, and true desires.
