In order to be fully touched by life and in order to touch those whose paths cross mine in a meaningful way I will walk in loving kindness, generosity of spirit, simplicity and humility.

I will strive to inspire others to revolutionary thinking and action through the empowerment of vulnerable populations. I will set standards for myself to give the highest level of focused service with courage, imagination, intellectual curiosity, tears and laughter.

I will lead a life centered in honesty and justice. I will find compassion and joy in others and try to implement similar characteristics, like patience and mindfulness in myself.

I will remember that what is important to me in life is my son, my loving partner, spiritual fulfillment, respect for life, my responsibility for personal health. My home will welcome family and friends, my garden will offer sanctuary and poetry to visitors, my interactions will offer visions of dreams fulfilled for others, myself and the world to explore.

I will recognize my strengths and develop my talents as an articulate, artistic, clever, and creative individual. I will envision myself to become a person who my loved ones think is loyal and caring.

I will seek out each day:
A child's laugh

Each day I will:
Laugh at myself

I will each day write my soul, debate my foe's position, tell a story, end a bit of suffering, and take a walk.
