Respect

Well a couple nights ago I had youth group and the youth pastor was talking about respect and he made it sound like he was saying we should give everyone our respect.

now this is going to be a short one but I think that we should be nice to everyone but our respect should be for those who earn it. Because I'd rather be respected than be.... Whatever. Because respect is somthing that it takes more to get than other things, and because of that is more valuable. If everyone got respect well what would be the point. You know? Anyways what are your thoughts?

STARTS AND ENDS

So as i'm writing this it's Like 11:00 at night and i'm thinking. Who in the world says to go to sleep at night?

Everything has a start and end.
Days- mornings and nights
Years- jan 1 to the end of Dec.
Life- birth to death.
Friends
Movies
Books
Seasons.
and what we do with those things are based on the beginings and the ends. New years for instance we only celebrate because technically it's new.
Days- we start by waking up. Breakfast, lunch dinner sleep. And repeat.
I'm mainly talking about days for this.
Our WHOLE society is based on the day timeline. Resturants, either for breakfast or lunch and dinner. Parties, at night usually. School, in the morning almost every day.

Now let's say that all this is because of "the man" (for those of you who don't know who "the man" is watch school of rock) "the man" wants us to be repeatative. He's the one who tells us to go to sleep at night and restart every morning.

So i'm really just thinking what would it be like if we had "days" lasting three tradition days(72 hr). It would change the world.
One. We would have basically 3 versions for every main meal. A breakfast breakfast. A lunch breakfast. And a dinner breakfast. And that repeating for everyone.
We could have one 13 hour block of sleeping at every "day" interval. And three 5 hour naps spaced in between.
Because of a longer period of not resetting like we do every morning, people would get more work done. More advancements would be made with night and everything associated because of more time awake in it.

And because of this Garfield and a million more others will no longer be able to hate Mondays.

Really I was just thinking about how different everything would be and what life would be like. If it would be better or worse or just different. I'd like to hear what you all think so please comment.
