“Life begins on the other side of despair”
— Jean Paul Sartre
Simplified Meaning:
When someone hits rock bottom and feels completely hopeless, that's often when they find a new beginning. This is because, in such tough moments, they have nothing to lose and can start making changes or seeing things differently. Imagine someone who has lost their job and feels like they have no future. In their darkest moment, they might decide to follow a passion they've always ignored, like starting a small business or going back to school. This new path often leads to more fulfillment and happiness than they ever imagined. So, even when things feel terrible, it can be the start of something much better and more meaningful.
