A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about the things adults don't remember from childhood and one post was purely comprised of quotes. One of the quotes I used was actually from a tumblr post, and it was as follows: "Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority” and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person” and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay." In any case, tonight before I go to bed (and by that, I mean before I drag my dad off to play video games with me) I'd like to just touch upon my opinion of respect. It won't be so much paragraphs as a short bullet list. I've been uninspired all day and while that's really no excuse, what I have to say is simple and needs no real elaboration. Take it as you will.
"There comes a time to stop crossing oceans for those who wouldn't jump a puddle for you."
