Guys sorry for this question above but I would like to ask here that

What is the difference of Trading to Investing?

though I know that I can search it in google but I want an answer from those people who have already experienced this two.
Thank you.

I hope you can help me in my confusion..

Trading is exchanging things with someone else too get a profit out of it. For example I trade a piece of wood for a lighter so I can start a fire.
Investing is putting your money in something like Facebook and you wait for the worth to rise before you have a profit.
Can i putting my money on facebook? i just can buy their stock. but basically the trading is for exchanging our goods into the other valuable goods. but time to the time the definition of the trading is depend on the situation.
