Hey, I'm not that old! I'm late 40s, you're in your 20s. Why would you offer your seat to me? At first I was a bit surprised when you got up to offer me your seat I realized you merely respected age as you would respect beauty and for that I give you kudos. Even God promises: "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you."
OK, so I'm not your dad or mom but, hey, you honored me, an older person. And that is RESPECT! And respect is a compliment. Thanks lad! I hope you have a great day. In fact, I think you'll have a great life. Surely, the more respect you give the more you will receive.
