The word respect comes from the Latin word “respectus” meaning attention, regard or consideration. It can be defined as “esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability“.
It is a very important component of both personal identity and interpersonal relationships. To feel respected could be considered a basic human right. Disrespect is a very important thing that can lead to break-ups and even violence.
It is a concept that refers to the ability to value and honor another person, both his or her words and actions, even if we do not approve or share everything he or she does. It is accepting the other person and not trying to change them. Respecting another person is not judging them by their attitudes, behaviors or thoughts. It is not expecting for someone to be otherwise.
Sirens show you what you want to see most through their call. It is a test of resolve if you can figure a way to sail past them without falling to the temptation.
Name is a form of identifier of a person and it's easier for our brains to remember "This was John" than "This was that tall guy with dark hair and blue eyes". The other reason is that it's usually kind to exchange names when one has a chat with someone else.
