"Le secret du bonheur est de faire face au fait que le monde est horrible"
— Bertrand Russell

Simplified Meaning:
To find true happiness, we need to accept that life isn’t always perfect. Recognizing that bad things happen helps us appreciate the good moments more. For example, when we understand that not every day will be sunny, we can enjoy the sunny days even more. This idea also helps us become stronger, knowing we can handle tough times. If we go through hard experiences, like losing a job, it can teach us to value the new opportunities that come our way. By being realistic about life’s challenges, we can focus on what truly makes us happy and not be overwhelmed when things go wrong.
