We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our 51 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us 52 everything to their kindness and love.
When we 53 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or 54 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 55 our own love and gratitude to them. 56 , elders have also been through all the years you are 57 and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is 58 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always 59 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 60 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 61 .
With changing times and 62 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 63 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 64 their voices.
If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 65 their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are 66 to give up their places to older people. This is not a 67 of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 68 , or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 69 disadvantage.
When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become 70 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.
