Some people might get mixed up between fear and respect, some might think the two of them are the same.
You fear the one you respect and you might respect the one you fear.
Hmm..
I don’t think it’s right, since those two words have a totally different meanings.
You can force someone to the limit and get a result that they might eventually fear you.
But..
You can never gain any respect from your forceful actions!
People will give away their respects willingly if you show them that you’re worthy enough to be respected
Soo..
Would you like to be feared or be respected?

I choose neither, as I don’t expect anything from people. Good post, will get people reflecting and thinking as well.

Aahh aahh.. I so much hope I will come to this phase of my life
My conscious mind knows that I shouldn’t expect anything from anyone but I guess somehow my unconscious mind still expect things, ahahaha ^o^
Comment by Indah July 8, 2009 @ 2:38 amHow comes you feel this way? Have you always felt like this? I have never felt like this before, even as a child. I have no idea what it’s like. Please tell me of your experience.
Comment by Ana July 8, 2009 @ 9:19 pmI’m sure you’re familiar with this :
Treat others the way you want to be treated
So, I guess in a way when I don’t do anything bad to other people, I expect they won’t do anything bad to me, ahahaha, but well.. that’s not the way the life goes, right?
Sometimes no matter how nice we are to others, there’s always a chance they will treat us badly, and vice versa.
So, I think having no expectations like you in a way will simplify lots of things and will save you from unnecessary emotions like “why did they do this to me, what have I done wrong?”, etc, hehehe
