"La vida tiene valor en tanto uno atribuye valor a la vida de los demás, mediante el amor, la amistad, la indignación y la compasión."
Simplified meaning
Life becomes meaningful when we care about other people. This happens through feelings like love, friendship, and compassion. For example, when a person helps a friend in need, it makes both of their lives richer and more fulfilling. If we only focus on ourselves, life might feel empty or lonely. When we are kind and show concern for others, we create strong bonds and a sense of community. By valuing others, we make our own lives happier and more purposeful. Showing compassion and standing up for others when they are treated unfairly are ways to add value to our own lives as well as theirs.
