"Vieillesse calme étendue large avec la fière ampleur de l'univers remplie de joie de tranquillité et de repos"
— Edith Wharton
Simplified Meaning:
Getting older is like reaching a peaceful, wide, and open space where you can see and feel more. Imagine an experienced person who has lived a long life. They are no longer rushed or stressed by small things. They have learned to appreciate the beauty around them and are happy and calm. This stage of life is full of contentment and peace. For example, consider a grandparent who is no longer working. They can spend their days enjoying their favorite hobbies, sharing stories, and feeling satisfied with what they have achieved. This wisdom and tranquility are what make old age special. Embrace the quiet and joy that comes with it, and you can apply this by focusing on what really matters as you grow older, finding joy in simple things and being at peace with life as it is.
