“Respect” has a multitude of contexts typically meaning:
“Tolerant” (being patient with, or accepting someone for who they are.)
or
“Admiration” (Really liking somebody, finding them to be really cool, honorable, etc.)
People often misconstrue the two.
Then there’s “Respect” that people in authority or power demand. (Government, Kings, parents, teachers, police, etc.) Which simply means in that context: “to be feared,” or “to be obedient to” and to follow orders without question or complaint.
Not everyone is going to like or admire you for who you are. That’s fine, and it should be earned. I hear this all the time, and it’s true.
But EVERYONE should at least be tolerated and treated fairly, regardless of their race, religion, opinions, status, passions, etc. Whether it’s a human being, animal, or otherwise.
At least if they can’t be accepted or admired by you that is.
Otherwise we can’t get along as a race, and will constantly fight and try to change each other, instead of accepting each other for who we are.
Respect/Tolerance is the glue that binds us together.
Without it...
There would be absolute chaos, and destruction amongst ourselves.
Respect. ✊

It is a made-up belief within our evolving measurement system we use to evaluate values, fairness, and potential.
Made-up belief... Because there is no measurement unit (inches, gallons, meters, etc.), we create it based on our experiences, culture, and what we have been exposed to. Beliefs can be changed instantly with new information. This system is subjective and created by the individual. Thus, made up.
Evolving measurement system... Respect is, by definition, a judgment of worth. This assessment system is always evolving as we grow, learn more, and see things differently. My respect system at 21 is very different than at 40.
The main categories we assess respect falls under three main categories. Values, potential, and fairness. Here are some words that fall in these categories. (there are many more)
Values: Trust, safety, consideration, loyalty, morals, disregard, Rudeness, generosity, kindness, manners, principal(s), intelligence, skill, hard-working, accountability, status, and punctuality.
Potential: Belief, obedience, loyalty, defiance, Love, kindness, effort, tact, winning, accomplishments, status, achievements, elders, winning a championship, gold medal, doctorate, graduation.
Fairness: Appreciation, generosity, justice, support, differences, kindness, the golden rule.

I respect people who treat others the way they like to be treated.
I respect the effort and dedication they put in to build their dream!
I respect people on time and who are considerate of others' schedules.
