“You give but little when you give of your possessions It is when you give of yourself that you truly give”

Khalil Gibran

Simplified Meaning:

Giving away things you own, like money or possessions, is good but not as meaningful as offering your time, effort, or care. Think about helping a friend who is sad. If you just buy them a gift, it's nice, but sitting with them and listening to their problems shows real kindness. It's like giving your heart, not just things. Helping someone learn something new or sharing your skills with them is another example. This kind of giving shows genuine love and makes a bigger difference in people's lives. To truly connect and support others, it's important to give a part of who you are, not just what you have.
