Respect What You Have

The more you respect what you have, the more you will feel respectful and respected. The more you are willing to live and speak and think respectfully, the more peace you have. The more you relinquish attitudes, conditions and beliefs that are disrespectful, stress decreases/ The more you think, speak and behave with respect, the more self esteem, health, happiness and prosperity increases.

Disrespect engenders a myriad of problems, struggles, conflicts, hardship and pain. Disrespect is an attitude of ingratitude. Disrespect is an attack that begets counter attack. Disrespect is an assault on oneself.

When individuals feel inadequate, incapable and helpless, they treat themselves with disrespect. When individuals feel better than, judgmental, arrogant and entitled, they treat others with disrespect. The way we treat others teaches them what they deserve. The way we talk to others is what we teach them to be.

Speak with respect. No more negative, critical demeaning language toward anyone including yourself. Give positive regard to everyone and everything. Release critical, hateful and judgmental words in private once and for all. Undo negative habits which lead to more of the same experiences.

Think with respect. Be willing to look again beneath the surface. (re-spect=look again) Look for what is needed to encourage and draw forth the best. Seek only to see what is Good, what is gift, what is blessing. Acknowledge what you have is what you have attracted to yourself.

Behave with respect. Engage in behavior and activities that make you feel proud. Even in private, imagine the world is watching and choose activities you respect. Dress and live with respect for yourself, your home, your vehicle and all you have. Interact with your children, your elders, your spouse and coworkers with dignity and respect.

We are each and all building a world with our thoughts, words and deeds. We are teachers of all those in our circle of influence. What we give, we receive. How we treat others is a reflection on ourselves and not on them. Be responsible for changing your attitude, your words and your behavior. Use language, facial expressions and tone of voice to convey positive regard and respect.

Be willing and wise in improving the qualities of your life by respecting all you have.

Loving you with respect for the gift you are, Betty Lue
