“The sun will not wait for you to wake up and enjoy its warmth ”
— Langston Hughes
Simplified Meaning:
Life keeps moving forward whether you are ready or not. Just like the sun rises and sets every day, opportunities and moments in life come and go constantly. Imagine you’re planning to watch the sunrise, but you oversleep. The sun won't hold off on rising until you’re awake; it will rise at the same time whether you're there to see it or not. This means you need to take initiative and be proactive if you want to make the most of life’s moments. If someone dreams of starting their own business, for example, they shouldn’t wait around for the perfect time. They need to act now, because time will pass, and opportunities will slip away if they don’t take action promptly.
