"Le caractère se développe dans le cours de la vie"
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Simplified Meaning:
Our behavior and who we become are shaped by our daily experiences and interactions. Imagine you are like a piece of clay, and life is the water that smooths and shapes you as it flows over you. When faced with challenges, how you respond helps build your character. For example, if you face a tough situation at work and choose to handle it with honesty and kindness, it strengthens your integrity and compassion. Over time, each choice and experience, especially the difficult ones, helps define the kind of person you become. Just like a river shapes a rock slowly over time, life's events mold and refine your character, making you stronger and wiser. By seeing every experience as a chance to grow, you can become more resilient and better equipped to handle what comes your way.
