Because being respectful is important to me, I attempt to demonstrate this in how I live my life and in the way I treat other people. I attempt to show my respectful nature in everything that I do. Whether its a simple gesture like opening the door for people behind me, I realize that this level of respect is appreciated and needed in this world. I demonstrate respect by staying courteous and by displaying kindness in all of my endeavors. Today we live in a world that lacks the respect of past generations and we are suffering because of it. I attempt to show thoughtful gracious behavior by staying humble about my accomplishments and by being accepting of criticism.
