"También hay lugares tranquilos en la mente, pero construimos kioscos de música y fábricas en ellos."
— Aldous Huxley
Simplified Meaning:
In our minds, we have peaceful and quiet spots, where we can feel calm and relaxed. However, we often fill these spots with noise and busy thoughts, like making plans, worrying, or thinking about work all the time. It's like having a beautiful park but building loud concert stages and factories on it instead. Imagine you have a quiet room to rest and think, but you keep bringing in loud machines or throwing parties there. Instead of enjoying the peace, you make it noisy and crowded. To apply this idea to your life, try to find time to relax and clear your mind. Avoid filling every moment with stress or activities. For example, if you’re always busy with work or social media, take a break and enjoy some silence, maybe through meditation or a walk in nature. This can help you feel more at ease and improve your mental health.
