Quote by Virginia Woolf

Summary

This quote suggests that sometimes our idleness and daydreaming can lead us to discover hidden truths or ideas that were buried in our subconscious. When our minds are not occupied with mundane tasks, we have the opportunity to let our thoughts wander and explore unconventional avenues. In these moments, the submerged truth, which may have been suppressed or ignored in our busy lives, can rise to the surface. It highlights the importance of giving ourselves space to contemplate and reflect, as it is in these idle and dream-like states that valuable insights can emerge.

Many of us are returning from a long journey during which we were forced to search for things that were of no interest to us. Now we realize that they were false. But this return cannot be made without pain, because we have been away for a long time and feel that we are strangers in out own land. It will take some time to find the friends who also left, and the places where our roots and treasures lie. But this will happen.
