The Thin Line Between Fear and Respect
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010As a teacher, a parent, and inspirational music composer, I am conscious of this subtle line of demarcation between the undesirable and the desired. It moves and waves from case to case, from situation to situation. It requires complete consciousness to keep it in control.
I want to be feared by no one – not even my worst enemy. If I am feared then I truly am an enemy. If I am respected then the enmity disappears and the relationship between constituents is in balance. Cross the line and welcome in the beginnings of war.
