Honor all men; love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the king. (1 Peter 2:17)

WAYS OF GIVING RESPECT:

1. Listen harder.
We already know that proactive listening should be your first social skill. We know this because we love when people listen to us, so we find it safe to assume that other people love when we listen to them.

2.Be considerate.
Once you’ve listened, it’s time to act accordingly.

3.Keep your promise.
By keeping your word to someone, you not only establish yourself as a person of integrity, but make the other person feel as though you value them.

4.Be on time. Another way to demonstrate that you value someone, is by treating their time as though it is valuable.

5.Have manners.
This is pretty simple. Do not interrupt a conversation, be polite and watch your ‘please’ and ‘thank you’. By showing manners towards someone, you make them feel valuable.

6.Encourage.
Genuinely encouraging someone could be very empowering and liberating.

7.Be fair.
We often find ourselves in a position of power over someone else; to some extent. Avoid corruption, give people what they earn-deserve, and they’ll appreciate it.

8.Go out of your way.
You don’t have to always do the bare minimum. If you want to show someone that they’re valuable, and that you respect them, go the extra mile without expecting a reward.

9.Preserve dignity.
When wronged, mistreated, or otherwise upset in some way handle the dispute with finesse.

10.Do Not Assume.
Start off each interaction by thinking of the other person as your equal.


Christian life is a journey. We will stumble and fall but don't stop, don't quit, be faithful, God loves us and will not forsake us.

Flores de Mayo

Araneta Center, on our way home from Ecopark, while walking, we heard Ati-atihan sounds. We followed those sounds and saw bunches of bystanders. "Ahh, may Santacruzan... cool!" So there... Glad we rode Jeep instead of bus; otherwise, we will miss these beauties. In these photos are beauty queens, previous and current title holders of Bb. Pilipinas Universe, Bb. Pilipinas World, and Bb. Pilipinas International.
