What do you mean when you
say, "I respect you?" Go ahead take 10 seconds; you admire one's
qualities, skills, achievements, and then you have the due regards for their
feelings. Do you actually care what other people think about you, unless
or until they meet you face to face? Maybe sometimes or maybe never. But
at any given time you would tell a complete stranger that you respect
them. Why? In order to get their attention and put a thought in their mind that
you were the bigger person or first one to acknowledge their skills or whatever
you liked about them and thinking that now the second person is bound to
respect you back as a social obligation. I am not talking about all of you but
"some" of you. Maybe one of you, the one who seeks respect, as if it
is an office lunch on the daily basis without which you will collapse on your
way to home. This seven letter word "RESPECT" is the hardest
thing to achieve in this world. You can’t buy it, neither can you steal it,
moreover, sometimes you won’t even realize that you have it already...
respect. But people who seek it, demand it, have a serious brain
condition, some even call it ADHD—Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and
other personality disorders. It is okay if someone respects you; it is also okay
if that very person disrespects you; what is not okay is your desire to be
respected by that very particular person. My friend, life is too short for
figuring out how many people respect you, it is all about why do they respect
you, and if you know the reason please maintain that quality in you because you
are inspiring others for that very quality now and people would love to adopt
that quality. And at the last, I would just say pay respect with actions, not
with words.

For the past thirty years my job entitled me to travel across different parts of the world from the northern cold part of the globe down to the hot tropical weather in Africa. From the fast paced life in America to the ancient traditions of Asia, living and being exposed to the diversity of culture has encouraged me to share the experience through writing which lead up to the thought of highlighting on the historical legends and leaders from different parts of the globe with their stories and struggles. Genius minds contributed to various life aspects science, politics, literature, arts, social activities and so many other fields. They put a keen interest in every phenomenon right from when they w
