I would like to be admired for good deeds
I would rather be admired for good deeds because true admiration comes from kindness and making a positive impact, while respect for power can sometimes feel forced or temporary.
Being admired for your deeds means people value you for the good you’ve done—your kindness, achievements, and the impact you leave behind. That kind of admiration often lasts, even after you’re gone, because it’s tied to your legacy.
Being respected for your power means people acknowledge your authority, influence, or control. But respect that comes only from power can fade the moment the power is gone—it’s often based on fear or position, not on who you truly are.
If I had to choose, I’d say it’s better to be admired for your deeds—because that grows from genuine character, and it inspires others long after the power fades.

I’d rather have people respect me for my character and actions than simply admire good deeds or fear power.
Admiration can be fleeting or surface-level, and power alone can isolate or intimidate. But respect earned through integrity, empathy, and consistency is deeper and more meaningful. It means people trust you, value your judgment, and believe in your principles — not just what you can do for them or to them.
In the long run, I’d want to be someone who leaves others feeling heard, supported, and respected — whether I have power or not.

No I normally do my good deeds in private so no one would admire me. It’s won’t be a good deeds if I’m looking for to be honor for it.
