"أرواحنا مثل هؤلاء الأيتام الذين لم تتزوج أمهاتهم"
— Herman Melville
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine a person who feels very alone and disconnected from others. This quote suggests that our inner selves, or our spirits, can sometimes feel abandoned and without support, much like children who have no parents to care for them. Just as these orphans might feel lost and without guidance, our souls can feel the same way if we lack purpose or connections in our lives. For example, consider someone who has moved to a new city and doesn't know anyone. They might feel isolated and unsure of how to fit in. However, by actively seeking out friendships and community, they can find support and a sense of belonging. Similarly, if we feel that our inner selves are drifting, it's important to find meaningful connections, passions, or activities that 'nurture' us. By doing so, we help our souls feel cared for and less alone. This helps us build a stronger sense of self and happiness.
