Exactly one can get respect if he/she respects other. Its like give and take in any relationship. :)

Respect is commanded never demanded.....give respect and take respect has become cliched now...

Though cliched, it has a universal appeal. We too say, "Give respect and take respect.' Its a quote true for all ages

I suppose so ...but it sounds a bit forced because it may not happen always..Like using the words' with due respect' and ' to be honest with you...

True. It all amounts to 'Non existance of force' in the realm of Respect

I agree, Usha! Here I remember the quote that one must be respectable before he or she deserves to be respected!

Of course that is there, one respects you only when they feel the need to do so unlike olden days when people would show or pretend to show respect either out of fear or because that's what was expected of them...I have an example where one of my relative says he never smokes in front his father, but is free to do what he wants as long as his father is not aware of it, if asked , he says it is put of respect for his father ! I would say it is more fear than respect...

That's right! Respect driven by fear takes the heart out of it!! :dry: :dry: :dry:
