Summary

This quote suggests that life is comparable to a party. Just like joining a party already in progress and leaving before it ends, we are born into an ongoing world and eventually depart before experiencing its ultimate conclusion. It encapsulates the idea that life is meant to be enjoyed and lived in the present moment, making the most of our limited time before our journey comes to a close. It serves as a reminder to savor the experiences and cherish the moments we have while we are here.
