Respecting yourself is a very important topic in which has a huge impact on one’s life; yet, it’s rarely ever taught or discussed. The concept of respecting yourself can be interpreted in many different ways. I believe “Respecting Yourself” means respecting one’s own body and being true to one’s own values, beliefs, and perspectives. However, in order to respect yourself- one has to learn to respect others. This means that although you may have different beliefs or opinions about particular issues compared to someone else; however, we have to learn to respect and value the other person’s beliefs and perspectives. Therefore by knowing how to respect others, one may learn how to respect their own beliefs and perspectives because of the emotional and personal connection each person has with them. Respecting yourself doesn’t only mean respecting your own body and self worth, but respecting those around you.
In this picture, I tried to convey the definition in which applies to me. I posed my friend against a white wall to really make her stand out. I then wrote words on her arms match the definition of respect. I wrote ME on her forehead to really emphasize the importance of self Respect. This picture – to me- truly emphasizes the value of respect and the impact it can make on someone’s life, rather negative or positive.
