Respect What exactly is that?
Respect is having boundaries and not having them stepped over. We set boundaries for what is acceptable for us and what is not, what is comfortable for us and what is not, what makes us feel safe and loved and what does not and if others step over our boundaries then they are disrespecting us. At first it may be an innocent mistake they may not know our boundaries as every one is different and what is comfortable for one person may not be comfortable for the next. We all will havw different boundaries because we all have different comfort levels, so some are bound to acidently step over your boundaries and it is your self respect that comes into play then and has the responsibility to let others know what the boundaries are, however if you have let others know your boundaries and they still overstep them then they are not respecting you. This is true disrespect.
So what do you do if you are being disrespected? You love and care for yourself by having your own self respect. 1st you must know yourself and know what your boundaries are yourself, what you are comfortable with and what you are not. I mean that is realy important because how can you expect others to know your boundaries and comfort levels if you dont know? So get realy crytstal clear on that and then comunicate to others clearly so they understand and make sure they do understand because if they don't they will keep on walking over the top of you. Keep it short simple and direct in your communication. There is no need to go into great depth and long winded explainning, just make sure that the others have got it. If they care for you and want you in their life and have understood your boundaries clearly then they will respect them. If they dont then they are not worth having in your life. If it happens and they have disrespected you after you have made your boundaries clear you can maybe warn them and let them know they are disrespecting you and give them a chance to prove that they did not mean to do it by telling them it has hurt you and made you uncomfortable and ask what they are going to do to make it up to you. If they are not interested in doing that then they dont want to respect you and if you respect yourself you will no longer entertain them in your life. Respect yourself and only have people in your life that will love, support, encourage, be kind and respectful to you. If you don't respect yourself then others won't either. Love n Light from Satori
Love who you are! If you don't you will attract other people that won't love you. Treat yourself gently and lovingly and show others how to do the same.
Value who you are! You are precious and priceless! If you don't value yourself others will devalue you.
Trust in yourself, trust in all your talents and abilities, however big or small you think they are, The world is waitting for you to share them. That is what you were born to do. Remember your talents and abilities are what you love doing. Get out there and share them.
Have faith that you don't have to do everything on your own. Your soul and the universe are waitting for you to step back so they can help and guide you into making your life a whole lot easier and more joyfull. Get out of your own way and stop trying to do it all on your own. Ask for guidance and listen for the answers before you act. Remember "ask and you shall recieve". There is always help. You were not sent into this world to do everything by yourself.
Love all - ways Satori
