"نقرأ لنعرف أننا لسنا وحدنا."
— C. S. Lewis
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when we read books or stories, we find characters who feel the same way we do. This makes us realize that others have similar thoughts, fears, and dreams. For instance, if you're feeling sad and you read about a character who is also sad, it can comfort you to know you're not the only one feeling this way. It shows that your feelings are normal and shared by many people. Imagine moving to a new city and feeling lonely. Finding a book where the main character also moves and feels out of place can make you feel understood. You can apply this by picking up a book when you feel isolated or facing struggles. It's like having a friend who understands without judging, making you feel connected to someone else’s experience.
