“The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain”
— Khalil Gibran

Simplified Meaning:
When you go through really tough times, your ability to experience happiness grows too. Think of it like digging a hole: the deeper you dig, the more space you create to fill with good things. For example, if someone has experienced a big loss or heartbreak, they may feel really sad for a while. But, once they start to heal from that sadness, they might find that they appreciate the good moments in life much more. It's like after a heavy rain, the sun feels brighter and warmer. In a similar way, people who have faced challenges often become more compassionate and grateful for the positive things. So, even though it may seem hard, going through sadness can actually make you stronger and more able to enjoy happiness when it comes.
