It's a new week so let's start a brand new word. Today I picked the word : " RESPECT ". This is what my card says:
" We are considerate of others’ feelings and our surroundings."
I have a very clear understanding about this word. This word means that we should think about others' feelings. We should consider how our actions make them feel. We should show that everyone is important, include everyone and show politeness. That was a pretty good definition for the word respect. However, we can still find a lot more about this word. Let's search together on the internet to see what we have found. If you find an interesting source, please share it in the comment below. Thanks! Anyway, let's search!
I found this really wonderful document on the internet and below is the link that leads you to the document. If you like, you can click on it and take a look.

After considering about the document, I think I can make a brief summary as of my understanding:
1. Show inclusion to others who are different
2. Say "hello" and greet others
3. Consider elders recommendations
4. Accept it when we are wrong and others are correct
5. Allow others to make their own decisions.
5. Uncountable kindness
6. Listen to others' opinions
7. Show fairness to others
8. Be an honest person
9. Always show empathy
10. Be polite
11. Don't judge others
12. Treat others the way we want to be treated
13. Smile, say " thank you " and " please "
Here are some quotes about the word " respect ".
