True respect does not come from what we do, as much as how well we do it.
This means we are shown respect according to the virtues and qualities revealed through our behaviour.

Attitudes
When you extend pure love to everyone with selfless motivation that is an attitude of kindness.
When you send good wishes and pure feelings to those who are in deep sorrow, that is an attitude of mercy.
When you see the virtues rather than the weaknesses in people that is an attitude of compassion.
When you bless and uplift someone even as they defame you, that is an attitude of forgiveness.
When you tolerate a situation and take responsibility as well as give cooperation even when not appreciated, that is an attitude of humility and self-respect.
Every second, every moment and every breath of your life is nurtured by attitude.
Space
Attachment is when the thread of my intellect gets sewn into the story of others.
When I am attached to people, situations or ideas
I lose the clarity of my own inner world and inner experience.
This outward focus links my thinking so closely to others that I am no longer aware of the respectful space between myself and everything around me.
It’s time to create respectful space in my life, for me.
