Pros and Cons of Respect

RESPECT

   Respect can be both a good and annoying thing. Some of the Pro's of respect are that you can learn, or advance in society because you respect someone. You can also gain their respect, and then you will feel good about yourself. Also, if you respect someone, you may influence others and then everyone will be happy. Finally, if you respect someone, then they will generally respond in a positive manner and you will not be unhappy for the rest of the day.
   Some of the cons of respect are basic. First, sometimes you may be forced to respect someone you don't, because of our society today, even when they don't respect you rightfully back. Also, you may be in the middle of something when you are forced to respect someone else because you are feel obligated. Furthermore, you may be forced to compromise your integrity when speaking to someone you don't respect so you can get along in life. Lastly, respect is a demanding thing. You can hope that it will work, or you can shrug it off and not try because you really don't want to be respectful to certain people.
