Simplified Meaning:

Giving every person their due means treating everyone fairly and giving them what they deserve. Imagine you have a group project at school, and everyone worked really hard. When it's time to give feedback or grades, each person should be recognized for their specific contributions. If someone did a lot of work, they should be acknowledged for it. If someone didn't do much, they shouldn't get the same praise as those who did a lot. This keeps things fair and makes sure people get what they have earned. In life, this idea can guide us to be fair in our dealings with others, whether it's at work, in friendships, or in our communities. For example, if a friend always supports you, it's fair to support them in return. If someone treats you well, you should treat them well too. By giving everyone their due, we create a balanced and just environment where people feel valued and respected.
