Now that we have a better idea of some of the things that interfere with our
Vision, let’s take a look at what supports our capacity to Live in Truth.
When it comes to Respect, we already know that:
- Respect is to recognize the sacred and holy nature of Life
- Respect conveys the knowledge that Life is Pure and of great "spiritual and moral worth"
- Respect is based on an equal standing within Creation
- Life is entitled by its very Nature to Respect
From the dictionary definition, we also know that Respect is to treat with
propriety and consideration. Let’s explore this.
propriety:
- the character or quality of being proper
Proper:
- specially suited or adapted for some end
The first thing to recognize is that being Respectful is a quality that is
specially suited and adapted for supporting our own capacity to Live in
Truth.
Proper:
- naturally belonging to a particular person
Also noteworthy is the fact that to be Respectful or to treat with propriety
(whether Self or other) is a behavior or way of Life that is natural. It is a
way of Life that belongs to us.
Could it be perhaps said that… Respect is a precious Gift, the value of which
we would be wise to once again awaken to?
