Simplified Meaning:

This quote is telling us that even though we didn't choose to be born, we do have a choice in how we live our lives and ask for help. It means that if someone or something, like God or a higher power, gave us life, they won't just come in and make everything better for us automatically. We need to be willing to play our part and ask for help when we need it. Think about it like this: if a teacher gives you a book and wants you to learn from it, they can't make you understand it unless you’re willing to read and study. The teacher is there to help, but you have to open the book and put in the effort. So, in life, even though help might be available to us, we must be open to accepting it and actively seek it out. For example, if you're struggling with something, like improving your health, you can't expect to get better if you don't agree to follow a proper diet and exercise plan. You have to take responsibility and agree to make changes. The help is there, but you have to say "yes" to it and take those steps yourself. In summary, the quote encourages us to take an active role in our own lives and seek the support we need instead of waiting for someone else to fix things for us without our involvement.
