Respect the Person
by B.C. Raines on 11/13/19
I have often heard it said “To get respect, you have to give it.” I’m sure that at some point in my life, I have spoken it myself and even believed it wholeheartedly. But I have come to understand that this is not an ideal “sisterhood” approach.
You see, as sisters and ambassadors of the Sister U Matter!® message, we should treat (respect) others the way we want to be treated (respected). Now, there is no guarantee that we will be treated that way by each and every person that we encounter but remember the Sister U Matter!® message starts with us; we set the tone, the expectation.
So I challenge you, respect the person. Who knows? Your respect shown to them could be the respect that is shown to you or even a catalyst of respect shown to others far after the person’s encounter with you.
Spread the word (respect)…Sister U Matter!®
