"من يتعلق بالفرح يدمر الحياة الطائرة ولكن من يقبل الفرح وهو يطير يعيش في شروق شمس الأبدية"

William Blake

Simplified Meaning:

Holding on too tightly to happy moments can ruin them. It's like trying to catch a butterfly with your hands; it can get hurt or die. But when you appreciate those moments without trying to keep them forever, you can find a lasting sense of contentment. Think of it like enjoying a beautiful sunset. If you try to capture it with a picture to keep forever, it fades. But if you simply watch and enjoy the moment, it stays with you as a beautiful memory. By not clinging to good times, you can enjoy a happier, more peaceful life.
