"عاجلاً أم آجلاً في الحياة يكتشف الجميع أن السعادة المثالية غير قابلة للتحقيق ولكن القليلين هم الذين يتوقفون للنظر في النقيض وهو أن التعاسة المثالية غير قابلة للتحقيق أيضاً"
— Primo Levi

Simplified Meaning:
In life, everyone eventually realizes that it's impossible to be completely happy all the time. Imagine someone who thinks they'll be happy if they become rich. They might get rich but still have problems and worries, so they never feel perfectly happy. However, most people don't think about the opposite idea: just like perfect happiness isn't possible, being completely unhappy all the time isn't possible either. Even on bad days, small things like a nice chat with a friend or a beautiful sunset can bring moments of joy. If someone feels sad, remembering this can help them see the good parts of their life. By focusing on these small happy moments, they can make their overall feelings better, even when times are tough.
