"Cuando dejas de hacer una contribución empiezas a morir"
— Eleanor Roosevelt
Simplified Meaning:
When someone stops trying to help or add value to the world around them, they start to lose their purpose and vitality. Imagine an old tree that no longer produces fruit or flowers. It slowly withers because it no longer contributes to the ecosystem. In the same way, people need to stay active and engaged to feel alive and fulfilled. For example, consider a retired teacher who decides to stop teaching or mentoring. If they don't find new ways to share their wisdom or help others, they may start feeling aimless and unmotivated. By volunteering, joining a club, or simply helping neighbors, they can continue to make a positive impact and keep their spirit strong. This idea encourages everyone to keep participating and making a difference, no matter how small, to keep their life meaningful and vibrant.
