I think of respect as if the finest artisan work of delicate, hand blown glass ...

... Once shattered?


All the King's and Queen's Horses and Men ... cannot ...

For me.....

Respect is earned....not given out freely.

The same is true of disrespect.



Nobody...and I do mean NOBODY just automatically merits unjustifiable respect. Let's face it...I give dogs more respect than I do people...cause with a dog...you know right off the bat exactly where you stand with them....people...you just never know.

My 5th grade teacher used to give all the students a A]/b] at the beginning of the semester. It was up to you to keep the A by working hard that semester...

I do the same thing with respect.... I give it to everyone when I meet them.... until they do something which warrants taking that respect away.... smokin

I totally agree. Basic respect is given to everyone I meet, but it can be lost by their actions and words.
