— Pablo Neruda

Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that laughter and joy from a loved one is more important than basic needs like food and air. Think about a tough day at work. Maybe you missed breakfast and are dealing with many problems, feeling stressed and hungry. But when you come home, your friend or family member makes a joke, and you both laugh together. That laughter makes you feel better and forget about your worries for a moment. It shows that the happiness and connection from laughter can be even more vital than physical needs. In life, always try to keep the joy and laughter in your relationships, because it can help you through tough times.
