“From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life”

Simplified Meaning:
Earning money by working allows us to live and pay for what we need. This is like doing a job to buy food, pay rent, and get clothes. But giving to others, like sharing our time, kindness, and resources, brings deeper happiness and purpose. For example, if you donate food to a shelter or spend time helping a friend, it makes you feel good inside and builds important relationships. Giving creates memories and connections that make life meaningful, not just survivable. So, just earning is not enough for a truly fulfilling life; helping and caring for others is what makes life rich and enjoyable.
