Respect means due regard for the feelings, wishes, rights, or traditions of others. At AOS, respect means showing kindness and treating others the way you want to be treated. We call this the Golden Rule. It also means to accept people for who they are and to accept yourself for who you are.
To me, respect means following the rules everywhere I go and putting others before myself. To earn respect, you must give respect. You must prove yourself trustworthy and patient. These are my thoughts on respect.
“He who scorns instruction will pay for it, but he who respects a command is rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13.
