“Do not do unto others as you would that they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same”
— George Bernard Shaw

Simplified Meaning:
When you treat others the way you want to be treated, remember that what you like might not be what they like. Just because you enjoy something doesn't mean someone else will feel the same way. Think about giving a gift. You might love chocolate and think it's the perfect present, but if the person you’re giving it to is allergic, it’s not a good choice. Instead, take the time to understand what others like and what makes them happy. By considering their preferences, you show that you care about their feelings and needs. This way, your actions are kind and thoughtful, not just based on your own likes and dislikes.
