“The present state of the world and all of life is diseased. If I were a doctor and were asked for my advice, I should reply: Create silence.”
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
Right now, the world and people's lives are full of problems, stress, and chaos. Imagine if you go to a doctor because you feel overwhelmed by noise and confusion. Instead of giving you medicine, the doctor suggests something simple: find quiet and peace. For example, think about how noisy it gets in a busy city with honking cars and crowds. When you escape to a quiet park, the silence can help you feel calm and think more clearly. Just like that, when life feels too stressful, taking a break from all the noise can help you feel better and more in control. By finding moments of silence, like meditating, reading quietly, or just sitting in a peaceful place, you can improve your well-being and handle life's challenges better.
