It is madness to judge all people or opportunities based on a single negative experience. One should not lose faith after a single unanswered prayer, failed effort, or betrayal, but instead remain persistent in seeking happiness each new day. Future success often comes after failure, so one should keep trying and not give up.
It is madness to condemn all of something based on one negative experience, such as hating all roses for one thorn or giving up on dreams because one didn't come true. The path to failure is giving up after a single attempt rather than persisting through challenges. One should keep trying and find happiness each day, as future success may come through renewed strength, new opportunities, or changed circumstances rather than abandoning hope altogether.
