""Aimer un autre être humain : c'est peut-être la plus difficile de toutes nos tâches, l'ultime, la dernière épreuve et preuve, le travail pour lequel tout autre travail n'est qu'une préparation.""
— Rainer Maria Rilke

Simplified Meaning:
Loving another person is one of the hardest things we ever have to do. It's not just about feeling affection; it involves understanding, patience, and sacrifice. Imagine two people building a house together. They must trust each other, make compromises, and work through disagreements. Each brick they lay is like an effort they put into their relationship. In life, we learn many skills and face different challenges, which all help prepare us for this important task. Loving someone deeply is like the final exam after all the practice we've had. To apply this, think about how every small effort you make in understanding others prepares you to truly love someone deeply and meaningfully.
