Respect - a way of life

When you think about it, respect is probably the most important.

Respect has several meanings
 
     
 

* Having regard for others. That means accepting that other people are different but just as important as you feel you are. Some people may call this tolerance 
* Having a proper respect for yourself. That means that you stand up for yourself and don't let yourself be talked into doing stuff that you know is wrong or makes you feel uncomfortable.
* Not interfering with others (or their property.)
* To consider something worthy of high regard. That really means taking all those other values and living them.

Earning respect for yourself

Earning respect from yourself is probably harder than earning respect from others. 
* If you aim to be an honest, caring person who accepts that everyone is different, always tries hard and is willing to share and help others, then living up to your aims can be very difficult.
* Don't give yourself too hard a time if you sometimes make mistakes. Mistakes are what we learn from.
* Earning respect from others is easy if you live by those values, because people will soon know that you are the kind of person who can be trusted to do the right thing, behave in a caring way and respect others' rights to be themselves.  "Make respect part of your life. As you grow older and move out more into the world you will meet lots of different people. We live in a very diverse society and if you have learned to respect others then you will be able to fit in well with that society."  Respect

Outside everyone is different
Inside we're just the same.
Everyone has feelings.
How many can you name?
The way that you treat others
Is the way that they'll treat you.
So respect each other's differences
And they'll respect yours too.
