In my life I have a philosophy of good vibes and respect. If you respect me I’ll respect you, but respect is different for many people. For me respect is being kind, polite, and giving a good “vibe” towards others and me. A good vibe for me is when I feel that your presence is calm and very social towards people. People that don’t know how to socialize give off bad vibes and they normally tend to be all about themselves and don’t know how to treat other people. I dislike many people that don’t know how to have a proper conversation with another human being. When a person is disrespectful towards others and does not know how to treat a person they automatically lose my respect. The reason for this is because if you are going to treat other people bad what makes me any different? There are exceptions to this kind of situation; yes I do not know them so I can’t judge them but they lost my respect. If I start talking to them later and they show me that they are respectful and it was just an in the moment thing than my thoughts will change about them. In my life good vibes mean a lot to me. When a person has a good vibe they are generally good people, they may not know what they want in their lives but they are good enough people to understand that life isn’t all about making money. It’s about trying to be the best person you can be. If that means getting rich or being an average person than that’s fine all you have to do is be a good person. That is my main philosophy being a good person in the time that we have to live.
