Respect

A Value many lack for others yet desire for themselves. A value that is worth more than gold (at least to me) but cost less than nothing. A level of honor or even an inanimate delicacy for the living to - if nothing else, socially earn and give one another. A concept that is often believed in practiced in words alone. It is an Attribute often mistaken for polite and cordial acts of

kindness. True respect is felt not simply spoken. It is demonstrated even when its value appears to be worth less then the effort put forth to give it. It is warm, not cold and it is remembered not forgotten. True acts of respect are not always demonstrated by ones treatment to you, but your interpretation of their treatment to others.
