"ما مردم را به رحمت خدا واگذار میکنیم و خودمان هیچ رحمی نشان نمیدهیم"
— George Eliot
Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that people often leave others to be judged or forgiven by a higher power, like God, but do not practice kindness or forgiveness themselves. Imagine a person who prays for others to be forgiven for their mistakes but treats those same people harshly and holds grudges. For example, in history, some religious leaders have preached about forgiveness but were not forgiving in their actions towards people in their community. The quote is telling us that it’s important not just to hope for others to receive mercy but to also be merciful in our own actions. To apply this in daily life, one can try to be more understanding and forgiving towards others, rather than just expecting a higher power to handle it. In doing so, we create a more loving and compassionate environment around us.
