I refuse to see myself as a victim.

Regardless of whatever happens to me, I will find the courage to live with dignity and purpose.

I accept the responsibility to make my life work.

I will treat my self as the miracle I am.

I will celebrate the gift of my creation and cherish the unique voice that I have been given in order to express the meaning of my life.

I will keep the child within me healthy so that I'll be able to meet each new day with enthusiasm and wonder.

I shall discover the things that I can do and be generous with my gifts.  I will become a vessel of love and show compassion and wisdom to everyone I meet.

I dedicate myself to the task of making this a better world having lived.
