"If I can stop one heart from breaking I shall not live in vain "
Simplified meaning
Helping someone who feels sad or hurt can make your life meaningful. Think of a friend who is upset because they had a bad day. If you cheer them up, your kindness makes a big difference. It shows that small acts of compassion can be very important. Just like how a doctor helps a sick person, you can help others by being there for them. It doesn’t have to be a big act; even little things, like listening or giving a hug, matter a lot. By making someone else feel better, you give purpose to your own life.
