"I have never seen snow and do not know what winter means"
- Duke Kahanamoku
About this Quote
This quote by Duke Kahanamoku speaks to the idea of experiencing something for the very first time. He has actually never ever seen snow and does not understand what winter indicates, suggesting that he has actually never ever experienced the cold and snow of winter season. This could be translated as a metaphor for the concept of not understanding what something is like up until you experience it. It could also be interpreted as a pointer to value the important things we have and the experiences we have actually had. It is easy to take for approved the things we have actually seen and done, but this quote functions as a suggestion to appreciate the things we have experienced and to eagerly anticipate the important things we have yet to experience. It is a tip to make the effort to value the appeal of the world around us and to be open to new experiences.
