And the greatest lesson that mom ever taught me though was this one. She told me there would be times in your life when you have to choose between being loved and being respected. Now she said to always pick being respected.

You will not always get what you want. You will not always get the things that you want. You will not always get the things that you want. But if you keep your eyes and ears open and if you keep yourself in tune with what is going on around you, you will always be able to make the right choices. So... metimes it is better to respect someone and give them what they want than to make them unhappy by not listening to their wishes. You can only truly learn from your mistakes and you will never learn anything if you keep quiet and never admit that you have made a mistake. Learn from your mistakes and never repeat them. There will be times in your life when you will have to make a choice between being loved and being respected. You will have to make a choice between being liked and being known. In other words, you will have to make a choice between being loved and being appreciated. Know that if you want to be respected, you should make a choice and respect others. Do not let others be respected because you have made a choice. Know that it is your responsibility to be loved and it is also your responsibility to respect others.
