Simplified Meaning:
It's important to speak kindly about people, even when they aren't around to hear it. Speaking well of others when they aren't present shows respect and kindness. For example, if you have a friend who did something great at work, you should tell others about it. It makes people trust and respect you because they know you have kind words for everyone. Talking positively about others builds a friendly environment, and it might even come back to you in a positive way. You can apply this by always looking for the good in people and sharing those thoughts, instead of focusing on the negative. This approach helps build trust and good relationships with others.
