RESPECT

Respect plays an important role in a number of ways.
Respect allows one to build trust “the other.”
Respect allows one to build and rebuild relationships.
It provides one with “an entry,” into the other side
Those who are respected within the community are most likely to be able to bring or encourage peace.
In addition, according respect can make the key difference in the direction of the conflict.
Its presence can lead to a positive change, whilst its absence may lead to even more destruction. The presence of respect can therefore create opportunities. It is then up to the peace builder to act upon them. You respect me, I respect you…..right?

Hear what Aretha and Kelly had to say about that.....
