Who we respect shows us who we are!
Respect is deep admiration of someone or something or some anything. Example; I respect momma birds that care for their babies to grow up and survive in the world…
Respect is an internal thing, a mental thing and yes even a physical thing. What, who and how you show respect is very important and someone who throws their respect all upon movie stars, singers, royalty and politicians; that should ring a bell in your head as to what is wrong with the world…

This morning as I walked Boza, we came upon a brother and sister! Eighty year old plus brother and sister. They were startled at the sight of Boza and exclaimed almost fright at the sight of him coming around the corner. Boza just stood and stared at these people and waited for me to catch up. Then I stepped into sight and they recognized me…
Immediately the woman, who is about 84 years old, smiled and said, “Svetacha doma? or Svetlana at home in village?
I said, “Net, Svetacha Moscow!”
Then she clucked like a chicken and came over to me and hugged me and told me how sorry she is that Sveta is not here… 🙂
I just grin ear from ear when I hear her do this and I always make sure Sveta knows about when she asks me where Sveta is…

Then as I walked on, it struck me what the two siblings were doing. They were building a fence! Now understand; they are both way over 80 years old, it is 6:00 a.m. and frozen this morning. These two were out clearing the ground, digging holes for posts and stringing chain link fencing…. No help and did not want or accept help. For I went back to see and they made it clear that the work was too hard and they would take care of it…
I smiled and nodded in agreement. Then went on thinking about how tough they are and how much I respect them. Therefore, “Who we respect?” was born in my mind…

I respect very few people; one of those people in the world that I respect without a doubt, is Sveta. She is the epitome of respect and if the worlds populace was like Sveta, then we would have a very wonderful world indeed…
I am not able to say that about myself, for while I earn respect through my actions, I also can be your worse enemy if you attempt coercion against me or ones close to me. Some would respect that and others just fear. I guess that is what is meant by, “Respect through force!” I thus earn respect both ways; by actions of care and actions of demand, according to the need for the situation…
I am not a sweet beautiful soul as Sveta is, but I defend such souls against repressions. Thus I have my place in the world and admire such wonderment as Sveta and the brother and sister this morning…

I respect life somewhat like Boza does. Boza respects me as the Alpha, but challenges that position time to time. I respect that and show him who is boss and Boza respects that also. neither of us challenge Sveta for she is the woman, mother and angel of our life. Both Boza and I respect that equate equally…
I am a human, but a human that realizes that he is an animal, not superior to animals and not the supreme ruler of the planet. I am an animal or a creature that has the earth for a home and I need to take care of my home. For it is the only home I or we have…
Thus I respect nature, God and all that is visible and occult in our world…. But I have issues with seeing the viability of humans and their purpose on this planet. Thus, I respect very few humans and their actions, desires and needs…
* * * * * * * * * *
To respect is an important trait of humans, just respect the ones that deserve to be respected. Because, like the term “hero,” we abuse the term “respect” and apply it to people that do not deserve such a title…
Have a nice day…
