    Default what does this saying mean?

    Dear Sir,


    "What the heart gives away is never gone…It is kept in the hearts of the others. "

    I came across this saying online, but I'm confused about its meaning.

    Would you please kindly help explain it for me?

    I can't say I've ever met with it.

    I haven't either, but I'd say it means that the love you give to others is never wasted.
    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
