It's a waste of time to think about things you can't know
"Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage" by Haruki Murakami explores the complexities of identity and the impact of relationships on personal growth. The protagonist, Tsukuru Tazaki, delves into his past to understand his experiences of loss and isolation after being rejected by his close friends. This journey leads him to confront his feelings and the memories that haunt him, ultimately seeking closure and acceptance.
A significant theme in the book is exemplified in the quote, "It's a waste of time to think about things you can't know." This reflects the notion that dwelling on uncertainties can hinder personal development. Instead, the narrative encourages embracing the present and finding meaning in the memories and connections that shape us, underscoring the importance of moving forward rather than being trapped by the unknown.
