Give respect to get respect.

in #life9 years ago

I think we all know the line "you need to earn respect to get respect".

If you ask me that's the biggest nonsense in the world. It almost fooled me to accept that if want to get respect, you need to earn it.

That means, you need to climb mountains, swim oceans, walk marathons and that all to get respect?? I think the one who invented this nonsense, needed some people to work for him, because i use a different kind of logic.

Aloud me to explain in a metaphor.
When i gave someone a hand, then that can be used seen as a friendly gesture.
My hand can also be used for a helping hand.
It's also a hand to put on your shoulder.
That hand can also help defend you from attackers.
But the moment you start to p.. on my hand, then i wound p... back, and il just remove my hand and move on.
And you will stay without the hand who supported you or stood next to you in the first place.

Now that's respect to me, i give that to everyone, no matter who or what ever. The words, i don't have respect for what someone does or say or live is complete nonsense if you ask me. And don't get me wrong, give someone respects doesn't mean i agree with his life, or that i believe what he say or that i stand behind him. Nope not at all. But what it do mean is, that i keep someone in his value, no matter who or what he/she is.

It's like you is you and me is me, you respect me and i respect you. And if you have a different opinion or live, then il just say we can always agree that we disagree, and with this short sentence is it possible to talk with everyone about everything.
Like Trump and Kim could sit down and talk, or sometimes they show in politic that some country don't want to talk with one country.


To me that's like "Hello WTF are you guy doing?", What do you mean you can't talk with this or that? Do they come from another planet? No of course not, they are humans and use words to communicate. Course people can talk with each other about the differences, to say that people don't want to talk with others is nonsense.

When someone from politics don't want to talk with some group or country, then he should get another job right away!!
Because being in politics mean, you need to communicate, and that's something everyone learn from school. If we said to the teacher in our days "no we don't want to talk anymore, then they put you in the corner or you get punished.

But when someone in the UN want to say something, then others stand up and walk away? That's complete nonsense.
When one politician do that again, then he should keep walking and never turn back because in our reality we need to talk with each other. Or how about the story of the wikileaks guy Assange.. Almost everyone in the politics said, he must died??

I mean.., who are they to decide who must died or not? How about the justice system do his work... if he did something wrong then prove it, but if he is wrong because he exposes the negative actions of the government, then the government is wrong. They are showing that they stand above the law, while they the politician should live by the law.
But i guess he did not deserve the respect!

So what im saying is, in the last couple of decades had they used the line, that we should earn respect before we get it. And that brought unnecessary competition, rivalry, wrong judgments and useless drama, might it be better to change tactic by giving everyone respect, until they use and abuse it. Then you are right to remove respect. And this was honestly my logic in life till the day of today, but dont kill me for this, because this is just my opinion.
So i hope you respect that :)
Thanks for reading, upvotes and follow!

Sort:  

I treat people with respect till they give me a reason not to. The only time a person has to earn my respect is if they have done something to loose it and wish to re-establish their friendship with me (often done with a simple apology).

Just my 2 cents

Thats what im saying my friend, i give respect until they dont deserve it anymore. But i will never demand from others that they must earn there respect.
Thanks for your comment!
