— George S. Patton

Simplified Meaning:
When we lose people who did great things, it's natural to feel very sad. However, instead of only being sad because they're gone, we should also be grateful that they were here and did those great things. For example, think about when a firefighter saves lives but then dies while doing so. It’s really hard to lose that brave person, but we can also be thankful for their courage and the help they gave to others. This way of thinking helps us remember the good they brought into the world. It encourages us to focus on the positive impact they had rather than just the pain of losing them. By appreciating their lives, we keep their spirit alive and let it inspire us.
