“Folks, I'm telling you, birthing is hard and dying is mean, so get yourself a little loving in between”
— Langston Hughes
Simplified Meaning:
Having a baby is really tough and dying can be harsh, so it's important to find and enjoy love during the time in between. Think of life like a sandwich. The bread slices are the difficult parts: being born and passing away. All the good stuff in the middle, like kindness and love, is what makes life worth living. Imagine working hard all day and feeling tired. When you come home and see your family or someone you care about, their hug or smile makes you feel better. That love and connection give you strength and happiness. Just like this, it's important to focus on love and enjoying moments with people you care about because it makes the hard parts of life more bearable. You can use this idea in your life by making time for the people you love and appreciating the small moments of joy with them. It reminds you that love can help you get through tough times.
