Respect

Something a family can live devoid of, especially when their goal in their minds is destroying lives and relationships.
Sorry I can't pay Lindys children any respect when they spit on my mind daily for the last 4 or so years with constant slander, lies and abuse.

Respect

“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. ✊
