"Le repos n'est pas de l'oisiveté, et s'allonger parfois sur l'herbe sous les arbres un jour d'été, en écoutant le murmure de l'eau ou en regardant les nuages flotter dans le ciel, n'est nullement une perte de temps."

Simplified Meaning:

Taking time to relax and do nothing isn’t the same as being lazy. Imagine lying on the grass in a park on a warm sunny day, watching the clouds go by and listening to a nearby stream. It might seem like you're not doing anything important, but this quiet time is actually very good for you. It helps your mind and body recharge. Just as a phone needs power to work properly, people need rest to be their best. By giving yourself moments of peace, you can reduce stress and feel more energetic when you get back to your daily tasks.
