Task 4


Fear and Respect :




"Respect commands itself and it can neither be given nor withheld when it is due" - Cleaver, Eldridge

Respect and fear are two different sides of emotion and are daily part of our lives. Every person have fear and respect on him/her. Where respect is taken as the optimistic emotion which can be given to others and can also be earned. Fear is taken as the pessimistic emotion which comes when person find himself/herself insecure. Actually fear is can be taken  natural behavior of human body. Respect and fear are somehow related with each other.

Respect in general is the attitude of high esteem or admiration of someone. If someone respects you means they admire you. They find something good on you so respect can earned by well mannered and calm behavior not by threatening others.

But now days people do not earn respect by doing superior things. They just threatened the people,  have power over  them and  make them do respect. It just like making poor animals to do the things by giving hard training. In result you may get the things you want but won't able to get respect from them.
To gain respect is very hard. In other hand respect made with fear can make negative impact to the human brain. His/her behavior may change towards you. May be they can go against you at any cost to make you harm. Which is not a good practice.

People say that respect is to be earned and not demanded and definitely not commanded. But in our daily life we either demand or command respect. Respect of a parent from child, boss from an employee, senior from junior husband from wife and vice-versa in almost relationship we yearn for respect. For example let talk about myself, in my home my father and mother made me to respect the guest come to our house even though I do not like them. I do respect the people who I admire. In school also teacher threatened the students to make them to do respect rather than pleasing their heart by doing something interesting and more optimistic.

In some cases fear is good. We know human are very independent in nature they don't do the things very easily. In order to make them do those thing they must have fear of someone or something. But in case of respect I don't think threatening others could help. It just a bad practice and can lead human to wrong way.
