"الجبان يموت ألف مرة، والجندي يموت مرة واحدة فقط"
— Tupac Shakur
Simplified Meaning:
People who are always afraid or worried tend to suffer many times in their minds because they keep imagining bad things happening over and over. They stress and feel pain repeatedly, even if nothing bad has happened yet. On the other hand, someone brave, like a soldier, faces danger head-on and only experiences the hardship once, at the actual moment it occurs. Think about a student who is terrified of failing an exam. They might spend weeks worrying and losing sleep over it, feeling anxious every day. This constant fear breaks them down many times before they even take the test. Another student, however, prepares and stays calm, knowing they will do their best. They only feel the stress when the test is happening, not before. In everyday life, it’s important to manage our fears and not let them control us because they can make us suffer unnecessarily. By facing our challenges with courage, we minimize the pain and live more freely.
