Spoonful - 1/8

Matthew 7:12 NKJV
Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

This is a simple principle; you will get treated by most people the way you treat them.  So, if you want respect give respect.   If not respectful, be hostile or argumentative with someone and see what that gets you in return.  So basically, you reap what you sow.
