"در این دنیا تمایل بیشتری به مقاومت در برابر دلبستگی وجود دارد تا مقاومت در برابر بیخدایی"
— Herman Melville
Simplified Meaning:
People often find it easier to go along with things that are not very demanding or do not require much effort, like ignoring moral or religious principles. When something requires real dedication and a lot of effort, many prefer not to bother with it. Think about how some people may quickly give up on a new hobby because it takes too much time and effort to become good at it, while they're fine with just watching TV for hours. It's much simpler for them to avoid any activity that requires real commitment and hard work. Now, apply this to more meaningful aspects of life, like being dedicated to a cause or belief. For instance, it's easier for many to just ignore the idea of giving back to the community through volunteering because it requires time and effort, whereas they can sit comfortably at home without any effort. However, true fulfillment often comes from that dedication and commitment, not from taking the easy way out. To make your life more meaningful, try to embrace the things that require devotion and resist the temptation to just do what's easiest.
