"Les moments dorés dans le courant de la vie passent rapidement devant nous et nous ne voyons rien d'autre que du sable ; les anges viennent nous rendre visite et nous ne les reconnaissons que lorsqu'ils sont partis."
— George Eliot
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes in life, we get so busy and caught up in our daily routines that we don't notice the special, wonderful moments happening around us. It's like being at a beautiful beach but only focusing on the tiny grains of sand instead of enjoying the whole view. There are times when really good things or amazing people enter our lives, but we're too distracted to really appreciate them until they leave. For instance, you might have a friend who always supports you, but you don't realize how important they are until they move away. This quote encourages us to be more aware and grateful for the good things and people we already have, rather than taking them for granted. By paying more attention and appreciating what's happening now, we can truly enjoy the richness of life.
