"Los hombres cambian y el cambio llega como un pequeño viento que agita las cortinas al amanecer y llega como el perfume sigiloso de las flores silvestres ocultas en la hierba."
— John Steinbeck

Simplified Meaning:
People change gradually, often in small ways that are hard to notice at first, much like a gentle breeze that moves curtains slightly in the early morning. Change can also be subtle, similar to the faint smell of flowers hidden in the grass that you might not detect immediately. For example, think of how a close friend might slowly develop new interests or habits over time, and you only realize how much they've changed after a while. This kind of change happens quietly and naturally, without big, dramatic shifts. In life, this means paying attention to the small, gradual changes within yourself and others. Understanding this can help you be more patient and accepting of the personal growth that happens over time.
