"Así es como termina el mundo no con un estallido sino con un gemido"

T. S. Eliot

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, big changes or important moments don't happen dramatically. Instead of something loud and obvious, they can fade away quietly, almost unnoticed. For example, think about a grand, old building that was busy and full of life. Over time, fewer people visit, and it slowly falls apart due to neglect, not by some big disaster. The end comes softly, almost in silence. In our lives, this can mean that some personal problems or relationships don't end with big fights or major events. They can slowly drift apart, with small neglects adding up over time. Being aware of this can help us take action before things get too bad. We should pay attention to the little things and fix problems early, rather than waiting for something dramatic to happen.
