Simplified Meaning:
This quote talks about a time when things are really bad and people are unhappy. Imagine it's winter, which is cold and harsh, and that represents a difficult period in your life. Let's say you lost your job or had a big fight with a friend—those moments feel cold and tough, just like winter. The phrase suggests that right now is that tough, unhappy time. However, just like winter eventually turns into spring, there's hope that things will get better. To apply this idea to your life, when you're going through a rough patch, remind yourself that tough times don't last forever. Keep working through them, because better days are ahead. It's like holding onto the idea that after a cold winter, warmer, brighter days are coming.
