"نحن نعرف ما نحن عليه لكن لا نعرف ما قد نصبح عليه"
— William Shakespeare

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes we understand who we are right now, but we can't predict who we will become in the future. For instance, think about a student who knows she's good at math and dreams of becoming a teacher. She can see her current talent but can't foresee that one day she might develop an interest in engineering and become an engineer instead. Our abilities, interests, and life circumstances can change over time, leading us to new paths we didn't originally expect. So while we might feel certain about our present identity, it's important to stay open to new experiences that could shape our future selves. This idea encourages us to embrace change and remain flexible about our future possibilities.
