Simplified Meaning:

Everyone deserves to be treated fairly and given what they have earned or deserve. Imagine you and a friend both worked hard on a school project. You both stayed up late and put in a lot of effort. When your teacher sees the project, it would be fair for both of you to get a good grade, not just one of you. This idea applies to all aspects of life. If someone works hard or does something good, they should be recognized and rewarded appropriately. By treating people with fairness and giving them what they deserve, we make the world a more just and respectful place. This approach encourages people to contribute positively, knowing that their efforts will be appreciated.
