"私たちはみんな異国の海の船乗りです"
— Herman Melville
Simplified Meaning:
Life is like a big, unknown ocean, and we are all like sailors navigating through it. Just as sailors encounter new challenges, surprising turns, and unfamiliar waters, we also face unexpected situations and new experiences in our lives. For instance, starting a new job or moving to a new country can be daunting and unfamiliar, much like setting sail in unknown waters. We may not always have a clear map or know exactly what to do, but we learn, adapt, and keep moving forward. Just like sailors rely on their skills and instincts to find their way, we also use our knowledge and experiences to handle whatever comes our way. By remembering that we're all in this together, facing the unknown, we can support each other and navigate this 'sea' of life more confidently.
