“We only have what we give.”
— Isabel Allende

Simplified Meaning:
When we share with others, we truly understand the value of what we have. Imagine a person with lots of apples. If they keep them all, they may feel rich, but their apples might rot or go to waste. However, if they give apples to friends, family, or those in need, they spread happiness and build strong relationships. These connections and the good feelings they get in return are far more valuable than just having a pile of apples. This way, by giving, the person gains friendship and a sense of purpose. In life, sharing your knowledge, time, or smile can make you feel truly rich because the appreciation and warmth you get back fill your heart more than material things ever could.
