"Le bonheur consiste à vivre chaque jour comme si c'était le premier jour de votre lune de miel et le dernier jour de vos vacances."
— Leo Tolstoy
Simplified Meaning:
Living each day like the start of a honeymoon means appreciating and enjoying every moment as if it's something new and exciting. Imagine when you first start a special trip with someone you love; everything feels fresh, and you make the most of every second. Now, think about the last day of a great vacation. You try to soak up all the fun and memories before it ends because you know it won't last forever. Combining these two ideas means treating every day with that same sense of joy and value. For example, if you’re having lunch with a friend, really listen and enjoy the time together, just like you would on a special vacation or at the start of your marriage when everything feels magical. Applying this to your daily life means not taking things or people for granted and always finding reasons to be grateful and excited. This approach encourages you to see the good in everyday things and live with a positive, enthusiastic attitude. By doing this, you can make ordinary days feel extraordinary.
