We give What we have. . !


By Summya Khan.

When you do stupid things,you silently tell yourself that you are stupid..and you could do that particular thing in a more meaningful way rather than doing it awfully...this underestimation is bittersweet and you don't actually get hurt with it,but when others think you are stupid than the situation is much more different..you actually start to avoid such people in your life who don't have respect for you.


When we are in school,and colleges,we are more or less treated equally by everyone i.e teachers,your classmates etc...but the next stage of life is much different..there you are treated and judged on the basis of some things that are actually not known to you before..
After spending a year and a half in University ,the criteria of judgment are finally disclosed to me.

For the ones who have no experience of this stage of life and are going to have it in future...let me tell you that you may find everything here except respect...which is most needed by everyone..

.Here you meet people ,who actually are not familiar with the word 'kindness'..instead they have the word 'attitude' several times in their dictionaries....they are also not familiar with the word 'respect'..may be because they have never got this beautiful thing by anyone in their lives..

They are practical enough that the theory of being polite means nothing to them..
It doesn't mean that everyone here is the same,there are people who know how to respect others,how to be helpful,kind,down to earth,they don't forget the values, they are brought up with, by their respected guardians.. but these people are like a pinch of salt in a sack of flour....!
Some lines that explain 'respect'..

Respect is a lesson that everyone should learn
Respect must be given before an expected return
Respect is the basis on which relationships are founded
Respect is the anchor that keeps a person well grounded
Respect builds the character and defines who we are..!

Respect sets the standard and raises the bar..
Don Wilson

I have highlighted one phrase of the poem..and that's because it really touches my heart and makes me feel relaxed whenever people treats me with 'no respect'..If you treat someone 'royally',it means you have been treated in the same way by people in your life..!!
