Respect people for differences instead of trying to change them

The time has come to stop pushing your beliefs on others. Instead of just saying your opinions louder to drown out the people who disagree with you, try listening to what they say and be respectful of their opinion.

You are entitled to your own opinion and so is everyone else. It isn’t really fair of you to belittle others or treat them poorly because they have different beliefs and opinions than you do. Respect the fact that everyone is different. Embrace people’s differences and listen to them when they try to explain.

You are not the only person who can be right.

Everybody has a different background and life that plays a role in what their viewpoint is, and we should all respect that.

Every single person sees things differently, so how can you expect everyone around you to agree with you on everything? They are different from you and they don’t have to agree with you. What they believe to be right is right, in their eyes.

For example, when you stand face to face with someone and you say something is to the right, they will say it is to the left because they have a different point of view right then. But, in those situations we don’t yell that they are dumb and wrong, we understand that they are looking at the situation from a different viewpoint.

Respect can be as simple as simply choosing to change the topic or say that you don’t agree rather than arguing. Respect can also be shown by just listening.
