I didn't have access to internet yesterday thus I am posting my article today.

This is the continuation of the previous article:

ABOUT RESPECTING ELDERS - PART 1
ABOUT RESPECTING ELDERS - PART 2

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to become an automated robot which has been programmed to respect those who are older then me without even considering if their expression and existence is worth respecting.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a certain set of rules and behaviors which are being regarded by society as being respectful and whenever I am being activated with a trigger point ( e.g. meeting somebody older then me ) then I am automatically behaving according to this set of rules which is being regarded as respectful; within this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to make out of respecting others an automated reaction instead of self expression in the moment of breath.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to demand and expect from younger people respect for me just because I am older then them; within this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to be brainwashed and programmed into believing that old age is all that is needed to be respected by others.

I forgive myself that I have not allowed myself to realize that demanding and expecting others to respect me because I am a war veteran is an automated and preprogrammed reaction; thus I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to become brainwashed and expect honor and respect for disrespecting life.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to become angry and pissed off because others don't want to respect me despite my old age instead of investigating what I have created for myself within this experience.

When and as I see myself expecting others to respect me because of my old age I stop and I breath; I realize that my expectation is an automated reaction preprogrammed within me .

When and as I see myself getting pissed off and angry because other people don't want to respect me despite of my old age I stop and I breath; I realize that I am angry with myself for disrespecting myself and the outside world is only showing me what I have created and allowed within my life; thus I stop and I investigate where and when I disrespect myself within my life.
