"Si vous vous sentez seul lorsque vous êtes seul vous êtes en mauvaise compagnie"
— Jean Paul Sartre
Simplified Meaning:
When you're by yourself and feel lonely, it means you might not be comfortable with your own thoughts and feelings. It suggests that having a good relationship with yourself is important. For example, think about how some people enjoy reading a book, taking a walk, or just sitting quietly and thinking. These activities can be fun and fulfilling even when done alone. If someone doesn't like being alone, they might need to work on understanding and appreciating themselves more. By getting to know your own interests and being kind to yourself, you can enjoy your own company and not feel lonely. This advice helps people find happiness from within, rather than always needing others to feel complete.
