"Pour quiconque est seul sans Dieu et sans maître le poids des jours est terrible"
Simplified meaning
When someone doesn't have a sense of higher purpose or someone to guide them, life can feel really heavy and hard to get through. Imagine a person lost in a huge city with no map and no one to help them; every step is confusing and frustrating. This is what it feels like to go through daily life without something to believe in or someone to support you. Having a strong belief or a mentor gives you direction and makes challenges easier to face. For example, when students have a teacher they trust, they feel more confident tackling difficult subjects because they know they have support. In the same way, believing in something greater or having a mentor in life can make tough times more bearable.
