The flow of time, observations & logic

Two years ago, I was listening to the physical complaints of someone dear to me & urged them to go to the hospital because I felt a blood clot was going to kill them. A few days ago I urged someone else dear to me to go to the hospital (I accompanied them) because my Dr told me that they might die of a stroke, within the hour. The simple observations I made in both cases happened to be correct. Both of these people are alive. I am posting this, because individuals save other peoples lives, everyday. Often, the individuals people save, are complete strangers. There is a personal code of ethics which is activated & consistent in these individuals & their acts which is incredibly superior to the superficial & one dimensional 'morality' which is destroying our planet. I am fascinated by the fact that observation, logical thought: its constructive applicability, & mutual respect are common occurrences in situations that could become highly volatile. Our self respect, as an isolated trait of ones character, is taken for granted. Life saving is common. Quite common.. What is not so common is a personal & consistent maturity that is necessary to achieve a sense of self-respect & what obviously follows self-respect is the potential for mutual respect. Who in your life is observant enough to treat you with the respect necessary to save your life? Who deserves your mutual respect? How does one achieve mutual respect? Can you treat strangers with mutual respect? Are we only meant to drive others to self destruction with the banality of our hysteria & our own self-obsession? Is it imperative that we use our narcissistic obsessions to drive others, our species & other species to suicide? Or could there be other uses for our species, such as mutual respect & the consistent application of trial & error, laws & logic? What does it really- mean to treat others with respect? Why is self respect important? How do we treat others, even our 'enemies' when we have self respect? & why does this matter, not only to us, but most importantly to other species & the planet. Why does respect for the planet & other species matter? Why does this matter as to how we utilize our time & energy & who we spend our time with? http://ubumexico.centro.org.mx/sound/12/12_12.Aram_Saroyan_Crickets.mp3
