“A life not lived for others is not a life.”

Mother Teresa

Simplified Meaning:

Living just for yourself isn't truly living. Think about a teacher who spends extra time helping students understand difficult topics. That teacher feels joy and fulfillment because they are making a difference in others' lives. When we help our family or friends, or even strangers, we create meaningful connections and build a sense of community. Helping others gives us a purpose and makes our lives richer. So, by caring for others and acting selflessly, we find true happiness and meaning in our own lives.
