We have committed the Golden Rule to memory; let us now commit it to life.
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
Sounds so simple, doesn't it? Unfortunately, there are far too many people who do not apply this simple concept. Most people expect everyone to treat them well regardless how they treat that same person. I am sure everyone has at some point been treated poorly when in fact they treated everyone well. I believe this is where the problem begins. When you treat everyone they way you would like to be treated and it is not reciprocated, humans have a tendency to get angry. They then stop "standing in their truth" of treating people the way they wish to be treated. This can lead to a vicious cycle of people mistreating each other and throwing The Golden Rule to the wayside.
If you want to be treated with kindness and respect, continue to treat people in that manner. There will be times when it is not reciprocated, but why would you want to lower yourself to somebody else's standards? Stand in your truth and continue to apply The Golden Rule to every aspect of your life.
Have a wonderful day and remember BE YOUR BEST SELF
