"没有一切是建立在石头上的; 一切都是建立在沙子上的, 但是我们必须像建造在石头上一样建造。"
— Jorge Luis Borges
Simplified Meaning:
Everything in life is uncertain, and nothing lasts forever. Even though things might change or fall apart, we should act like they won't. Think of building a sandcastle at the beach. You know the waves will eventually wash it away, but you still put in your best effort to make it beautiful. This means we should give our best in everything we do, even if we know it might not last. By doing this, we create value and meaning in the present moment, learning and growing from our experiences. For example, when you work hard on a project at your job or build strong relationships, you give it your all, knowing that things might change in the future. This attitude helps you live more fully and achieve meaningful progress, despite the uncertainties of life.
