"What does respect mean to you, who do you respect and why, and how do you demonstrate it?"

" Respect ", whenever I heard this word, it put me into deep think. I have lots of words to say but let's see how it means to me. What respect actually is??, can we define, yes we can. Respect is an evaluation which we give others, we respect elder people , we respect whom we love. Even we have self-respect which we can earn by showing others respect. Some People think only rich powerful people deserves respect but it's not true. Anyone deserves respect if they are worth it.

“Respect for ourselves guides our morals;
respect for others guides our manners.”
Laurence Stone

Definition of respect from my perspective:

I belong from a very respected family which means from my childhood I was being taught how to respect others. My parents always told me to respect elder people, yes I respect elder people obviously. But now for me I respect those who deserve to be respected..

Now, we live in society and everyday we meet new people. It is really important for us to know how to respect others and I think everyone learns about it from family. Showing respect towards others describe who you are and from where you belong.

What is self-respect:

Self respect means it defines who you are and your value as a human and gratitude. If you respect yourself , you will be able to give respect to others. On the other hand showing respect to others means you are giving value plus you are making someone feels good and worthy as well as showing them that they deserve it.

Those whom I respect most:

As I have already mentioned that I respect those who deserve to be respected... I respect my mother and she deserves it. She was not only a mother but was also a wife, a mentor, a strong person who had faced many challenges in her entire life and she never broke down. She always wanted that I would be her mirror or her duplicate copy which unfortunately didn't happen but I created my own personality. I respect people, whenever I meet new people I try to show respect , this means they understand from which culture I belong plus who I am. Because now I am one of the representative of my family. Showing respect towards other also describe my personality and my humble attitude, my dignity.

My ethics is if I give enough respect to people , I will get back respect as well. You have to earn respect by giving others respect.

But before giving someone respect, make sure the person is worthy enough to be honored. Don't loose your self-respect.

“Life is too short to waste your time on people who don’t respect, appreciate, and value you.”
Roy T. Bennett

I have seen many people who loose self-respect for some mistakes of their life. So, think before giving or showing your respect because may be some people don't deserve your respect...
