41, RESPECT Please respect one and other, starting with your mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers. Now try this with all others. The respect you receive for doing this, may cause others to enlist. Respect should be instilled from a young age. If this was done well, we might have less rage. Respect can start with helping someone out. Start with a stranger, you may get a smile no doubt. Some people today only think about themselves. Don't be rude be polite by showing them what is right. It may take a while for respect to take effect. Even when done well no-one is perfect. Sometimes in life there will be stress. Some people don't handle it well and get in a mess. Respect what they are going through. You never know when this could happen to you. Show respect in all that you do. One day respect could be returned to you. Go share respect with your mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and all others. Think about it over your next beer. With respect you will never have fear.
