"本当の発見の旅とは新しい景色を探すことではなく新しい目を持つことにある"

Marcel Proust

Simplified Meaning:

This quote means that true discovery comes from changing how we see things, not just by looking at different places. Imagine you walk the same route to school every day and think it's boring. One day, you decide to notice the small details like the flowers by the sidewalk, the birds singing, or the nice people you pass by. Suddenly, your walk feels new and interesting, even though the path hasn't changed. In history, many scientists made big breakthroughs not by finding new planets or lands, but by looking at their surroundings differently. For example, Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity not by traveling somewhere new, but by wondering why an apple fell from a tree. In our daily lives, we can apply this idea by changing our perspective. If we're feeling stuck or bored, trying to look at our situation from a different angle can make things feel fresh and exciting. Instead of always focusing on what’s wrong, we can try to see the potential and beauty around us. This shift in mindset helps us find joy and opportunities we didn't see before.
