"同情不能替代行动"
— David Livingston
Simplified Meaning:
Feeling sorry for someone is not the same as helping them. Imagine a friend who has lost their job and is struggling to pay bills. Simply telling them "I feel sorry for you" won’t put food on their table or help them find a new job. Instead, taking steps to support them, like helping them with their resume or buying them groceries, actually makes a difference. Sympathy can make someone feel heard, but action changes their situation. By taking action, you show that you truly care and are willing to help them improve their situation.
