***Here are a few words of wisdom:    
To respect someone means to have a high opinion of him or her - to
really like that person.
Earning the respect of others is part of living a successful life, but before
we can earn the respect of others, we must first learn to respect
ourselves. In Mexico, they say it this way:
   You will not be respected unless you respect yourself.
   (No tendras respeto si no te respetas a ti mismo.)
When we behave in ways that are honest, kind, and fair, we feel better

about ourselves; we have better self-esteem and self-respect. And, of course, 
when we behave in a respectful way, others are more likely to be
respectful toward us.
Today, think about some ways in which you aren't always respectful to
others. Look for ways you can improve in these areas. You'll feel better
about yourself and earn a little more respect from those around you.

With something to think about, Make it a great day....or not. The choice is yours.
