“In this world, goodness is overlooked ”

Langston Hughes

Simplified Meaning:

People often don't pay much attention to kind actions or good deeds. Imagine a person who helps others by giving them food, listening to their problems, or volunteering at shelters. Many times, these generous acts go unnoticed because they don't make a big splash, unlike dramatic or negative events. For example, in the news, we hear more about scandals or crimes than about someone quietly helping their neighbor. If you do something good for someone, they might not always say thank you or recognize your effort. However, continuing to be kind is important because it makes the world a better place, even if it doesn't always get recognized. So, keep doing good things, even when it seems like nobody notices, because it's the right thing to do.
