"زخمهای تمام نبردهایی که از آنها اجتناب کردم را با خود دارم"
— Fernando Pessoa
Simplified Meaning:
When you avoid facing problems or challenges in life, it can still leave a lasting impact on you. Imagine if you always took the easy path and never dealt with difficult situations—these choices might make your life seem less stressful at first. However, not dealing with problems can create other issues. For example, if someone never stands up for themselves, they might feel a loss of confidence and self-worth over time. Or consider a person who never tries anything new because they fear failure; they might miss out on experiences that could make them happy or help them grow. Even though it looks like avoiding battles makes things easier, it often leaves emotional or mental scars. It’s like avoiding battles doesn't save you from hurt; it just changes the type of hurt you experience. So, facing challenges head-on might be tough, but it's a way to grow stronger and avoid these hidden wounds.
