Simplified Meaning:
People eventually pass away, and countries can change or disappear over time. However, ideas, like freedom or equality, continue to exist and influence the world long after the people who first thought of them are gone. For example, Martin Luther King Jr. fought for civil rights and justice, and even though he is no longer alive, his ideas about equality and peaceful protest continue to inspire people today. Similarly, the concept of democracy has roots in ancient Greece, but it still shapes how many countries are governed. By believing in and supporting powerful ideas, individuals can make a lasting impact that goes beyond their own lifetime. This means that our thoughts and beliefs can keep helping others long after we are not here.
