"多くの財産は人を良くしないならば彼にとって重荷であり苦痛である"
— George Santayana
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes having lots of things isn't always good. If our belongings don't improve our lives or make us happier, they can actually cause stress and problems. Think about a person who buys many expensive gadgets, but then has to work long hours to pay for them and never has time to enjoy them. This can make them feel tired and anxious rather than happy. It’s like carrying a heavy backpack full of things you don't really need; it just makes your journey harder. On the other hand, if we only have things that truly add value to our lives, we feel lighter and less stressed. This advice reminds us to focus on what is really important and let go of the rest to feel more at ease.
