There are a lot of people who deserve respect and there are many who don’t. Many of the people who deserve respect get it and there are many who don’t deserve it but get it anyway. There is a small fraction of people who deserve respect, and I must admit that I am one of these people, but they do not get the respect they deserve. Not to say that it is disrespect, which is a conscious effort not to respect someone, but rather an unmotivated lack of respect where respect is due. My wife is a person who lacks respect for me…
