“Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.”

Rabindranath Tagore

Simplified Meaning:

When you truly love someone, you don’t try to control or own them. Instead, you allow them to be themselves and make their own choices. Imagine you have a pet bird. If you love the bird, you let it fly because flying makes it happy. Keeping it in a cage so you can always see it might make you feel better, but it wouldn’t be fair to the bird. In the same way, loving a person means supporting their freedom and happiness, rather than trying to keep them all to yourself or dictating what they can and can't do. This kind of love is healthier and more fulfilling for both people.
