This proverb emphasizes that success is achieved by following the natural, right, and established methods rather than trying to do things in an unnatural or egoistic way.

This expression describes a situation where kindness or generosity is met with even greater reciprocity. It highlights a cycle of mutual affection and hospitality between family members, specifically how a small gesture from one side is returned more abundantly by the other.

It implies that while a birth mother (or a true well-wisher) feels genuine sorrow for one's struggles, a stepmother (or a rival) feels envious of one's success or status.
