"当你失去永恒的幻想时,生活就失去了意义。"
— Jean Paul Sartre
Simplified Meaning:
When we start to believe that our lives will last forever, we feel more hopeful and motivated. Thinking that we will be around indefinitely makes our everyday problems seem less significant. It is like having endless time to chase our dreams and enjoy experiences. However, realizing that life is actually short and that we all have limited time can make things feel less meaningful. Imagining how much someone can value their life when they understand it's going to end someday helps to focus on what's truly important and to appreciate every moment. So, instead of feeling down about life's end, use that awareness to live more fully and meaningfully, making the most of every day you have.
