"Dignity is not something that anyone can give you or take away. You've had it since the moment you were born. Don't let anyone make you feel less." © Shoshan

Maintaining dignity implies valuing oneself, recognizing one's own worth, and not allowing others to treat you disrespectfully or abusively. If someone offends you, you are not obliged to accept it passively; on the contrary, you have every right to stand firm, defend yourself, establish clear boundaries, and express that respect is an essential element in all interactions.
On the other hand, we must remember that dignity also involves treating others with the same respect and consideration that we demand for ourselves. Those who speak ill of others are infringing not only upon the dignity of the person they criticize, but also upon their own dignity. Just as we expect respect, we should also grant it, because respect and dignity are intrinsic to harmonious coexistence and a fulfilling life.
Dignity, then, is a balancing act between self-respect and respect for others. By refusing to be the object of offenses and by abstaining from offending others, we demonstrate our humanity, our integrity, and above all, our dignity. Being a good and dignified person means treating others as we want to be treated: with respect, consideration, and empathy. Dignity is an intrinsic value that we all possess and that we should preserve at all costs.
