  • The wise professor once again teaches his class another valuable lesson. This unexpected lesson is about showing respect to our fellow. At times we over look the hard work or appreciate the people in our lives, we take them for granted. Always remember to respect your fellow human beings because ultimately we are all part of the same family.

    If nothing else, the gift of giving your attention and kindness is repaid immediately. Need a smile, give a smile. Really good message.

    the way you respect people most don’t even look at is how you threaten anybody in your life - this defines who is a good person and who has a bad attitude 😢

    This shows us that something that's so little has an even deeper meaning to it, even how small it is. It gives us a lesson. It gives us a meaning. It gives us a reminder on what we should be.

    Respect is confusing nowadays for me, seems that people demand their respect aggressively when they haven’t earned it. They want to be feared not respected.

      @krokrokrokro Год назад +1

      so you have two choices , show them smiles everytime , or tell them if they want respect they must give too , or nobody will talk to them anymore ... the fear of loneliness is a strong tool for disable aggressive peoples who make that for protect themselves .

    Ollie... and Sallie. Those were the names of the two women who were the primary custodians at the college which I attended multiple decades ago. When I was first there, as a student, I happened to notice that they were somewhat 'invisible' to most all of my classmates, who simply passed by them without acknowledging their presence through either a nod of their head, a smile, or even a simple 'Hello'... let alone ever actually stopping to have a conversation with either of them.
    I gave each of them a greeting by name, and fairly often had conversations with each of them, following that first time in which we spoke with one another... those things taking place not only during my time there as a student, but also when I returned as an adjunct faculty member a few years after graduating. They were both somewhat shy and reserved women in their general natures, but that in no way prevented our having had many interesting conversations with one another over the years.
    A simple 'Hello' isn't anywhere near as difficult to give to another as the actions... or, lack thereof... of so many in our society would at first glance make it appear to be.

    I myself have experienced an unexpected lesson in respect. It was after I was disrespectful to a worker. I took him to his boss’s office for his outgoing, tactile behavior at work. I told him he shouldn't touch anyone without consent. Just handshakes. I said we needed the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, that he pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school. How he shouldn't tell his stories because they may be inappropriate to some degree to the other workers; funny to him only. I think he’s about 25. He seemed pretty quiet and uncomfortable during my speech. Answered a question or two with a nod and headshake. Then, that night, he fought a burly brute in downtown--who had a _knife._ The worker risked his life to save a would-be victim, despite being unarmed, shorter, and inexperienced in fighting. He could've easily gotten kiIIed. He almost did in fact.
    I was horrified when the man seemingly jabbed the knife in the worker's stomach (of course, the angle blocked my view). My worker was barely able to grip the knife-hand in time before it got IN. He got REALLY lucky. He kicked the brute *below,* got the knife, and hit the guy's head with the handle. I praised him for overpowering his enemy and saving a life but he told me I didn't truly respect him. That if it hadn't been for his heroism, I would've still thought very less of him. And you know what? I think he's right. I should've respected him before he vanquished an armed enemy. Heck, I should've been more delicate and sensitive when speaking to him. More filter, less touching at work? Yeah, but compromise would've been fine. Like, only touching friendly coworkers he gets along great with. It's perfectly natural to causally touch or tap people without it being creepy. He never meant to be that word. He just needed some limits. I should’ve shown more patience and _respect._ A *brief* talk in the *hall,* not formerly in the *office with his boss present.* And I shouldn’t have asked her if there anything she wanted to add. Plain insensitive. The guy never meant any discomfort or harm. He deserved better from me. I'm a jerk.

      @StoryStoryWithFolu 9 месяцев назад

      You are awesome for coming out very plainly and honestly taking the blame for your past mistake. That's so thoughtful of you!
      However, I sense that you haven't completely forgiven yourself nor healed from the incident.
      How about you let go already?
      Better still, find the person ( worker ) in question if he's within reach and apologize in person; that would mean a lot to him and say a lot about you.
      However, if that's impossible, continue life with the lesson - treat people nicely, you never know tomorrow!

    Wouldnt work in the middle school i worked in. The students dont have a care in the world for anyone. Taught to them by their parente of course. If I had tried this lesson, it would turn into a bunch of eye rolling, and agumentative attitudes. Sad world we live in and yet one of the reasons we still have teachers putting up with the nonsense is because they care about the future of our society. God bless them even if they seem bad because they put up with all of it and then some.

    The office workers doesnt like me because im a cleanman
    (i think thats te reasson they dont greet me back).
    After months at that office i stopped greeting those peoples is that wrong of me or not?

    • @sweetsushanna-ahh
      @sweetsushanna-ahh 11 месяцев назад +1

      I think you should still greet ppl but only those who “meet your eyes “. The truth is that people have changed, people are more selfish, self centered and dismissive. Don’t change, just adjust. If a person meets your eyes, you then decide if THEY are worth your greeting. If they do not even visibly acknowledge you, then don’t acknowledge them.

    Yes education didn't mean having degrees having placed in big companies serving at big position I guess it means that Mr professor said in vedio that respect is very first to come an educated person character fiet introduce by him self by respecting the other one not mean that the other one is what but means that respecting is first greatness... Of a qualified human being..

    First learn the meaning of what you say, then speak -Epictetus
    This is a beautifully worded but profound statement.
    Just no..This is not the definition of respect.
    To learn the true meaning takes more than just knowing the definition, you have to intentionally experience and practice the context in which the word Respect describes to truly analyze and understand it.
    Is the glass of water half empty or half full?
    This is making Respect into something more or less than what it is.
    re·spect
    /rəˈspekt/
    Learn to pronounce
    noun
    1.
    a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements.
    "the director had a lot of respect for Douglas as an actor"
    late Middle English: from Latin respectus, from the verb respicere ‘look back at, regard’, from re- ‘back’ + specere ‘look at’.
    If it's a feeling, then it's a reaction, not an action.
    Newtons third law of motion.
    Then opposite of respect, is disgust.
    I don't have deep admiration for what is essentially misinformation, if I chose to feel otherwise, I'd have to lie to myself in order to do so.
