Respect yourself. Respect your body through healthy food, breathing and exercise. Respect your spirit, soul, heart and mind through a balance of freedom and responsibility. Stop any violence towards the other human being. Respect your wife, children and parents. Bring Respect in your marriage. Start a program to bring yourself in a Respectful mode again.
We live in a world without Respect. Many people live in a cocoon with their own view of Good or Evil. This does not create Respect. It creates Hell. Many people emphasize the cocoon of the own group and want to maintain this cocoon by violence. Violence kills Respect. Respect starts with realizing that every human being is different and yet every human being is equal to the other. Every human has physical and psychological borders. Cocoons and borders can change if the change leads to Happiness. Respect brings Happiness.
Equality is the first step to Respect. The realization of being equal to another human being is what makes people human. In equality, there is no violence. Equality starts with disarmament. Adult women are equal to men. People of all races and cultures are equal. People with and without disabilities are equal. The gay is equal to the straight. The younger is equal to the older.
The mother judges the rights of the unborn. The family is equal to the single person. The one-parent family is the same as the two-parent family. Smokers are equal to non-smokers. People living on the street are equal to those living in homes.
Every country should have a Constitution. Th Constitution should overwhelm all other Laws of a Country and international treaties. Equality should be the first article of a Constitution. The Constitution should be maintained by an independent Constitutional Court. Capitalism introduced a class system, the lowest class living on the streets, then immigrants, low-paid workers and welfare recipients, the middle class of two earners, the upper class of executives and the highest class of wealthy. The elderly who receive a pension are now also regarded as the lower class. Governments should decline the in-equality by an equal tax percentage.
A live-able country is civilized, safe and secure. Respect starts with maintainable, balanced live-able principles. Democracy is the foundation of Respect from the people to the President and the Parliament. The parliament enforces the principles through laws. Compliance with the laws is for everyone to have a good life. Then everyone must be able to understand the laws and the principles.
