"La forma más común de desesperación es no ser consciente."
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
When people are stuck in their daily routine without thinking about their life or how they feel, they can end up very unhappy. It's like being on autopilot, just doing things without really understanding why. For example, someone might go to a job they dislike every day but never stop to think about what else they could do or what makes them happy. Over time, not being aware of these feelings can lead to deep sadness or emptiness. To avoid this, it's important to regularly pause and reflect on our choices and feelings. By being more aware, we can make changes that lead to a more fulfilling and joyful life.
