Simplified Meaning:
When you talk with someone, it's important to listen to what they say and add to it, rather than argue against it. Imagine you and a friend are discussing ways to improve your neighborhood park. Your friend suggests planting more flowers, and instead of saying that's a bad idea, you could suggest adding benches so people can sit and enjoy the flowers. This way, you're building on their idea, making the conversation positive and productive. This approach can help you understand each other better and come up with creative solutions. Applying this to everyday life means being a good listener and supportive in conversations, which can strengthen your relationships and lead to better outcomes.
