Respect...

RESPECT

hummm, sometimes Young People think the World at this age is never going to change, soo they tend to do whatever they please...and this forinstance is one of the basic things of every young person's life...

Respect..!!!

what's Respect...as we grow-up, one Bible verse took us through Sunday School, "Children, Obey your Parents in the Lord, for this is Right"...then afterwards we learnt another verse, (maybe later in High School).."Obedience is better than Sacrifice".....well, that's cool..and that's great.

but what's Respect if only, it's spoken, without Action. yeah that's my question.

Respect is not only saying "Hello", "GoodMorning", "Thank You", bowing down in low esteem. Respect is what you do to others, that makes you feel better within, and finally accepted by everyone.
It's really interesting how 21st Centry Youth don't take Respect into consideration.

You know it's funny when a Lady snobs you, but later ask you for Help, it's also interesting when you visit a Friend's house, and forget to greet the Gateman, but later return to him for help.

We feel abit more better, when another Human Being shows us that good action called "Respect", yes, it feels good to be Respected, even appreciated in a little way. Sometimes, you might be down, but when someone shows you alittle Respect, it gets you back on your feet.

Many people easily forget that action, and it's not their fault, depending on the mode or situation.
You can practice Respect even in your Love Life, the way and manner you both understand certain decisions, Rules and Regulations, even how you touch her, where she feels better, and how you relate to her friends, or how you talk to his Ugly Brother, mean Sister, or Difficult Mother, uhuh, Respect is a very important action in Relationships, we easily slip over-it and go back begging for apologies.

Have you forgetten the way and manner inwhich you said this few words "i Love You", huh, yes, that was full-of Respect, including Love.


Remember, Love is always vital and next to Respect. Then meaning you're actually showing a Fake Feeling, when you don't add much Love.

The way you Smile, Walk, Dress or even Present, yourself to another Person, is all part of Respect.
if you challenge this fact, then answer me, How will you appear infront of your Nagging Ex-Girl?
or "How will you expect to leave a relationship, when he just announced the Break-up Word?
Yes, soo now, you see, Respect is really fundamental especially when it comes to the Young Person's Life. We make lots of mistakes, by listening to the thoughts of other people who have a bad perception of some people. Especially, my formal Boss, was the type that most workers didn't like that much, they called him names, almost everyone said, he's a Cheat, a Lier, or a Thief, or even an immoral person, hummm, well, it seeems funny, but this same man, was really the most of respected of all, anytime he travelled outside his Country, even closed door Nigerians, will respect him, this man never treated me wrong, or did anything bad against me, he cherished me soo much, and always respected my views, he even ate in the same plate with me, and wait till we finish the last bone, funny enough, he always called me "BOSS", wow, the same applies to my next Boss, the Founder of Chaterhouse & GH-One Tv, yea, people said lots about him too, but when i got close to him, i found-out, that he was the most Simplest Boss i've ever seen, and He's soo real, that he entertains you, everytime, he also calls me "Boss".

It's the same way, in our Neighborhoods, the least people we show respect to, are the onces we endup trusting, because they appear at the vantage points, where you really need a friend, and there's no-one, apart from this people. Wayback in school, you remember those who always failed in their exams, and we called them "Fools", but look at them today, you will be surprise to see them living the big life, that your cleaver friends, dream of. Even in Church, the Poor onces, who don't appear to look good, are the onces, who actually practice what's right in-and-outside the Church.

Funny, how People say "The Rich Kids, don't Respect at all" but hey, things have changed. These days, it's the Poor Ones who actually have much Pride in themselves, and think the World has pity on their stupidity. Don't you see it everywhere. Walk in town, and accidentaly step on the toe of a Street Hawker, and you will regret not taking the Bus, or Taxi, even the way and manner Passengers speak to the Mate, is very patertic "...just arguing over a very small amount of coin" . But let's go together in a RichMan's Party, and you will see how many Smiley faces, will approach you with Hugs and Kisses.

Please, Respect moves along smoothly with Patience. yes, and it's an Act of Worship. No matter what, these words "Sorry", "Forgive me", "God Bless You", "Thank You", "Hope you're fine", "Take Care", and more, can be used to Heal Pain, in soo many ways.

i quite remember having a serious fight with my friend's Sister, only because she wanted me to say "SORRY", it sounds funny, but she's right. After-all, it's not a Crime to say this, and it's never a crime to use such sweet words. They don't make you feel boring, they make People fear You, and pay much attention to you, they can even miss you, and tend to care about you, just because you show them some level of Respect.

in Relationships, respect deals with, the way and manner you touch your Lady. emm, humm, Ladies hate Guys who easily touch their Breast, or try kissing them. Guys also hate Ladies, who easily search their Pockets, or go through their messages, or look for their Wallets. There are common things we do, that bridge our Perception towards other people, and it's the way we talk. i know you might wanna say anything, because you're an Adult now, but your environment, is the number-one consideration. that alone speaks for itself. i've had soo many people talk to me, in very unhealthy ways, when it comes to Respect, and these same people comeback to me, begging for Favours.

if you have Problems, Respecting people, then you had real problems from your Home. because the saying "Charity Begins at Home", is never wrong, its working everywhere, everytime. Try to over-come Pride, and let abit of Shyness take-control, then Respect will automatically come.

It's Good to Respect People, whether you're Older, or Stronger, or even much more intelligent, who know's you might need that person, one day, somewhere....and don't listen to what people say about others, espercially, when everyone is teasing a particular person, just try and respect this person, you will be honored in a Different way.

Let's end with this small experience i had,

"one night i was going home, in a bus, when this lady just sat by me, with her rude face, thinking i will speak to her, because she was looking cute, she didn't give anyone the attention, but funny enough, the money she paid for her lorry fare, wasn't the right price, then she felt ashamed, because no-man was ready to help her, i smiled, and told the mate to deduct the rest from my bill"

you see this little scene talks alot about Respect.
if she could have showed a smily face, greeted some of us, and even tried to make a few friends, i believe she would even arrive at her journey without paying any thing for her transportation...!!!
