“It takes a long time to become young.”
— Pablo Picasso
Simplified Meaning:
As people grow up, they often face many stresses and responsibilities, making life feel serious and complicated. Over time, they might forget how to be carefree and true to themselves, like when they were children. Each person needs to learn how to relax, play, and enjoy simple things again. Think of how a busy adult might feel overwhelmed with work and daily tasks, but then find joy in spending a day at the park, playing games with kids. Reconnecting with that playful, light-hearted part of oneself is not easy and can take years. This process is about rediscovering and embracing what makes life fun and fulfilling, like a child’s sense of wonder.
