Maturity Begets Respect, What Do You Think?

My own ideology of maturity before was actually base on your age and that kept on going like that to the extent where we were told and taught that because these people older than us are matured everything they do is right, more like they are never wrong but growing up life gave me a different definition and meaning to maturity because through experience and literacy I begin to counter all those things that I carried along as a child, so I am right to say to you that the fact that you are older than me with a week's, months, years doesn't automatically means that you should be matured than me and for me to look up to you in some areas of life where I feel you are more experienced or mature, you in person must have proven beyond reasonable doubt that you are truly matured but physically and mentally.

One of my brothers was narrating to us how he was in class during one of their class meeting, it was more like class discussion and then someone superior among them who must have known alot more than them or is more exposed more than them or probably is in a more advanced class, so that person was in the class with them addressing them and all that, trying to caution them about the things they are doing that is not properly, obviously this is a good thing to do trying to advice those who you consider as your juniors so while doing so he pointed at my brother and told him to stand up, he stood up and this man used him as an example of a type of student that is not sharply dressed.

This my brother in question at the time didn't have lots of clothes and shoes so he tend to manage what he has by repeating them to school, this school setting is an extra lesson for students so they are allowed to wear their normal clothes and come to the school, what pained me in this whole matter is that the man thinks because my brother is not dressing with fancy or shiny clothes he is not dressing appropriately to his test, that move alone by the man was meant to bring my brother down in a manner of disgracing him before his peers and in that same vein uplifts the man standing there, if at all you wanted speaking to someone about your his dressing don't you think calling the person aside and start by asking why he dresses like that would have gained you more ground in dealing with the matter at hand very well.

But because if a man is immature there's nothing you can do to help the person at the time unless growth take place, so in his immaturity he did that and was satisfied. Most immature but yet grown up people tends to behave in ways that you the sane and mature person get provoked or irritated by it, and funny enough to be mature is not only in one aspect we can have the psychological maturity, emotional maturity or even social maturity which can depicts or show in the way that individual handle life's situations and challenges, in the way they take responsibility for their actions whether good or bad, in the way they make decisions. And one big advantage of maturity is that it earns you respect, haven't you notice that those who respect themselves, carry themselves with so much dignity and values are always respected, why because they have mature in such a way that they coordinate their life living as a good example for others to follow.

It's so nice pouring out this feeling with you all, thank you for reading through.
