"مثل گفته تولستوی است. خوشبختی یک تمثیل است، بدبختی یک داستان."

Haruki Murakami

Simplified Meaning:

When people are happy, their lives feel simple and smooth, just like a basic, nice picture. But when people are unhappy, there's usually a deeper, more complicated story behind it. Think about when someone tells you about their good day. They might just say, "It was nice. I had fun." But if they had a bad day, they'll have a lot more to talk about—what went wrong, how it happened, and why it made them feel upset. For instance, when a friend tells you about a great vacation, they might mention the beautiful places they saw. But if their vacation went badly, they'll tell you about the missed flights, bad weather, or any arguments they had. This extra detail is because bad experiences are more complex and memorable. So, when you're feeling down, remember that it's okay to talk about it and share your story—it often has more interesting parts than simply saying you're fine.
