"Dans la vie, il y a autant de tristesse que de joie"
— Langston Hughes
Simplified Meaning:
Life has both happy and sad moments. Think about a day when you wake up feeling great because you have a fun activity planned, like meeting friends or celebrating a birthday. That’s the joy in life. But sometimes, things don’t go as planned, like when you hear bad news or something unfortunate happens. That’s the sadness. Imagine you have a garden. Some days it’s sunny, and the flowers bloom beautifully, representing joyful times. Other days, it rains or the flowers wilt, and that stands for the sad times. Both the sunshine and the rain are part of taking care of your garden. In the same way, experiencing sadness helps us appreciate the happy times more. If you never had a bad day, you might not understand how special a good day can be. Embracing both emotions can help you stay balanced and resilient through different seasons of life.
