“Tis all a chequer-board of nights and days, ”
— Omar Khayyam
Simplified Meaning:
Life is like a board game with black and white squares, representing the ups and downs we experience. Sometimes we have good times during the day, and other times we face challenges at night. For example, think about someone learning to ride a bike. They might fall and get hurt (a tough moment), but then they get back up and start to enjoy riding smoothly (a happy moment). Just like this, our lives are a mix of happy and sad times, and we move between them. This idea teaches us to accept both the good and bad moments because they are all part of the game of life. Embrace every experience, knowing that tough times will pass, and brighter days will come.
