“It is not what we get but who we become, what we contribute that gives meaning to our lives”

Simplified Meaning:

True happiness and life satisfaction come more from how we grow as people and what we give to others than from the things we own or receive. Think of a teacher who dedicates time to help students learn and succeed. The teacher might not receive a lot of money or gifts, but the joy from seeing students improve and achieve their goals brings a deep sense of fulfillment. Similarly, if you spend time helping a friend in need or volunteering for a cause you believe in, you grow as a person and feel more connected and valued. By focusing on personal growth and helping others, you can find more purpose and joy in life than by merely collecting possessions or rewards.
