Respect Your Elders


         One thing my mom taught me was to respect those who are older than you.  At times we may not understand what they are saying, but one thing you never do is disrespect someone who is the sole reason why you exist.  My family has a series of equalizers and they keep order in the family. They are also the one’s you don’t want to tick off.  Reason being by any means necessary they will get their point across.  They don’t care about your feelings or what you have to say the last thing you will remember is seeing their face when you wake up from the ground or hospital.  Now I don’t condone violence, but I will say this much no one denies you have a voice but you will get disrespected in other ways if you continue to disrespect others who labored for you.
Deuteronomy 6:20-25   Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
