I recognize exercise is very important and that emotional well being includes regular body movement but it is something I find very difficult to get myself to do. I cannot be true to myself without including this paragraph in my personal philosophy. Being more active is something I wish to work on.

All definitions aside, the respect that most people want is the respect that is earned by the showing of honorable actions or personality characteristics.

Respect is perhaps the fundamental context to relationship, and a natural expression of love. Once you get that we all need and affect each other, you'll get the relevance of respect.
