"我们混淆了现实与非凡,以至于我们不再知道哪个是哪一个。"
— Jose Saramago
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, we mix up what’s normal with what’s special and can’t tell them apart anymore. Think about seeing amazing photos on social media every day. People might think that what they see is how life always is, without realizing it's just the highlights, not the whole picture. In real life, most moments are regular and not like those perfect photos. For example, going to a sunset at the beach can feel really special, but if you see sunsets every single day in photos, it might become less exciting. This happens with many things, like always seeing people post about fancy foods or cool trips, leading you to think this is how life should always be. Because of this mix-up, people might stop appreciating the simple, everyday joys like a walk in the park or time with family. It’s important to remember that normal life has its own great moments, even if they are not always flashy or extraordinary. Realizing this can help people feel more content and thankful for the small things in their daily lives.
