“It is so hard to leave until you leave and then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world”
— John Green
Simplified Meaning:
Leaving a situation or place can feel really difficult before you actually do it. For example, imagine being in a job you don't like. You might feel stuck because you're afraid of the unknown or worried about finding another job. But once you decide to quit and actually step away, you might realize that it wasn't as hard as you thought. Suddenly, you feel free and relieved. This shows that sometimes, the biggest challenge is making the decision to leave, but once you do, it can feel like the simplest thing ever. Applying this to life means recognizing that taking the first step to change can be tough, but the feeling of liberation afterward is worth it.
