RESPECT

Respect is a small word but has a lot of meaning behind it.  To me respect means to let your elders know you are a very manerable person by using the words ma'am, sir, thank you, and many more words you can use to acknowledge your elder or maybe even a stranger.  Believe it or not but you dont have to know a person to give them respect.  My parents always have taught me this way " YOU HAVE TO GIVE RESPECT TO GET RESPECT" and that is good advice that i have went by every since i was old enough to know what respect is.
