The next time the 38 went to the drugstore, the druggist greeted her with a big smile, told her how 39 he was to see her again, and said he hoped she liked their town. He also offered himself 40 a resource to the woman and her husband as they got 41 . Then he took care of her order quickly and efficiently.
Later the woman reported the unbelievable 42 to her friend. “I suppose you told him how poor I thought the 43 was?” she declared.

Or as poet-philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson put it, “Every man is 51 to be valued by his best moments.”
Where love focuses on giving to others, respect shows a 52 to receive from them. If you have had the opportunity to work in many environments, and you have 53 both types of people—those who have and those who have not shown you respect—you 54 how motivational respect can be. And you also know that you are more easily influenced by people who 55 you well.
