"Un homme qui en tant qu'être physique est toujours tourné vers l'extérieur pensant que son bonheur se trouve à l'extérieur de lui finit par se tourner vers l'intérieur et découvre que la source est en lui."
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
Many people think that their happiness depends on outside things like wealth, other people's opinions, or material possessions. They spend a lot of time and energy trying to get these things, believing they will make them happy. However, after a while, some realize that true happiness isn't found in these external things but comes from within themselves. For example, you might buy a new phone or car hoping it will make you feel great, and it might for a short time. But soon, you may find that this happiness fades and that real, lasting contentment comes from self-acceptance, good relationships, and personal growth. Instead of always looking for happiness from the outside, focusing on developing inner qualities like gratitude, kindness, and self-love can lead to deeper, more lasting joy.
