“The best things in life shouldn't be rationed”
— Ian McEwan
Simplified Meaning:
We should fully enjoy the valuable and wonderful things in life without holding back. Imagine you have a favorite dessert that you love, such as chocolate cake. Instead of only having a tiny piece every now and then because you’re afraid it will run out quickly, it’s okay to enjoy a bigger slice and truly savor it. Life's great moments and experiences are meant to be cherished fully, like spending time with people you love, laughing with friends, or enjoying nature. Holding back on these joys doesn't make them last longer; instead, it limits our happiness. If you have a hobby you love, such as painting or playing music, don’t limit the time you spend doing it out of fear of losing interest. Embrace and appreciate these joys fully, as they add true value to our lives.
