“You cannot divide the living from the dead.”

Robert Louis Stevenson

Simplified Meaning:

Living people and those who have passed away are deeply connected, and you can't really separate them. The experiences, love, and memories of people who have died still influence those who are alive. For example, think about a family who has lost a beloved grandparent. They might remember the grandparent’s stories and wisdom, continue family traditions they started, or even keep certain sayings or lessons in mind. This way, the grandparent, though not physically there, still plays a part in their everyday lives. So even though someone might not be with us anymore, what they contributed to our lives carries on. This connection can provide comfort and guidance, reminding us that the impact people have on our lives can endure beyond their physical presence.
