"私が書く理由は、人生を夢遊病のように過ごさないためです。"
— Zadie Smith
Simplified Meaning:
Writing helps people stay awake and aware of their experiences. Imagine if someone goes through their day without really noticing or thinking about what's happening around them. They might eat, work, and sleep, but never really understand their feelings or the world. Writing is a way to pay attention to life. For example, if someone keeps a diary, they start noticing the little things that make them happy or sad. By writing these things down, they can better understand themselves and their lives. It helps people live with more purpose and awareness, rather than just going through the motions.
