Dignified Damsels

It would seem much of the time that while so many so called self respecting, educated, so called independently minded women don't truly respect much or anything , often especially men, the so called women who are said to have no self respect truly respect everything to be truly respected, especially life and self interest and truly understand and respect men. As for me I respect anyone who respects me . I only judge that which spitefully judges. My idea of a relationship is being married to a great guy. That is myself , but being on the low down with the opposite gender. please, don't tell him. he's so jealous. ha. ha.    footnote; is life about love and being a dove or just hate disguised as it's opposite. ask yourselves, please. honestly.

I've always lived by the proverb of Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That thought engenders respect. Love is the first cause and it gets diluted.

I work with children and one of the things I always tell them is to gain respect you must first be respectful of others... kind of like you reap what you sow … deep thoughts!
