“Being is. Being is in-itself. Being is what it is.”
— Jean Paul Sartre

Simplified Meaning:
The quote is talking about the idea that existence, or "being," just simply exists without any need to explain it. It's like saying a tree is just a tree. You don't need to explain why it is a tree or what makes it a tree; it just is one. In our daily lives, this can mean accepting things as they are without overthinking them. For example, sometimes we worry too much about why certain things happen to us. If we accept that some things just happen and focus on dealing with them instead, we can find more peace and be more productive. This idea encourages us to stop overanalyzing and start living in the moment.
