respect

where were you, when you last remembered how it felt

when things looked so grim,

as if dire circumstances would overtake and neutralize what good you sought to accomplish?

perhaps better to say

 that which you treasure most

in a positive+perspective…

when despite your best intentions,

you were incapable of by your own circumstance, resources and opportunity to commit necessary resources to fix.

was someone there for you

who gave on their own accord

who was capable and willing

to unselfishly give in your behalf

…without directly to benefit…?

how did that make you feel?

does that exist within you now?

charity indicates respect of humanity

giving back gifts of love given to, for and of you

when you practice what you preach

…you will get your due…

respect
