"如果你知道如何利用，生命是漫长的。"
— Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Simplified Meaning:
Life can seem much longer when you make the most of your time. Imagine you have a day off work; if you waste it doing nothing, the day feels short. But if you do things you enjoy or that are meaningful to you, like spending time with loved ones, learning something new, or helping others, the day feels fuller and more satisfying. It’s like filling a jar with small rocks first, then adding sand—the rocks are the important things, and the sand fills in the gaps. If you focus on what really matters, your life feels richer and more complete. This advice is about valuing your time and choosing activities that make a positive impact.
