Appreciation

I was told the other day that no one really appreciates each other.
Whoa. Hold up now. I haven’t heard this kind of pessimism in a long time.
These kind of statements are genuinely reserved for other people.
It was refreshing to remember the other side exists. I’d forgotten that people feel this way.
They not only feel this way, but they truly believe it.
I’m really not an eternal optimist, but I believe we can teach others how we will and will not be treated.
Body language, nuances, straight out talking sets guidelines for the behavior we will receive from not only those we love, but those we encounter.
There are obvious lines and segments of social circles, not everyone can be a close comrade, but in all walks of life, we will be approached as appropriate, generally, in the way we command ourselves.
How people respond to us is a reflection of who we are in relation to the external view of ourselves.
Is this too complicated?
All I’m saying is how other people respond to us is a reflection of who we are internally, just like a mirror or photograph shows our exterior, other people’s responses reflect our interior likeness.
I recommend more people watch this closely, and learn to enjoy, the true appreciation they see from others, if that’s what they’re looking for.
